19 Reasons Teachers Need To Quit Striking And Start Teaching

    June, July, and August. πŸ™ƒ

    1. First, teachers already make so much money.

    2. Since 1996, their salaries have ballooned...

    3. ...which is why, nowadays, a teacher's salary is way more than enough to get by on.

    4. Sure, school supplies are expensive, but at least teachers never have to spend any of their own money on them.

    5. They get to leave work at 3 p.m.

    6. And they never have to take any work home with them.

    7. Must be nice!

    8. Teachers basically just sit behind their desks all day...

    9. ...and boss kids around.

    15. On top of their salaries, teachers are paid with the gratitude of their students...

    16. ...and their students' parents.

    The parent of one of my students called me LAZY in a meeting today... Um, do ya know what that word means lady?

    17. At the end of the day, teaching is so easy, anyone can do it.

    Next person who says β€œteaching is easy” to me is going to write all my lesson plans for a full day in a first grade class. They need to include ALL subjects. And they need to be differentiated instruction based! How easy is it now 😑

    18. The only difference they make in students' lives is whether they pass or fail.

    19. So teachers: Quit striking for more money and get back to doing your job.
