Re: am i a terrible teacher?
I think you need to go back to basics and see if they even know what they are being asked in questions... im no teacher, but id do a mini mini lesson on that

2010 crashing,
It amazes me some of the answers you get on tests. last year I taught 5th grade and it just amazed me at what the kids would write. they wouldn't read the question and just write anything.
no, you are not a horrible teacher, you just have kids that don't care about schoolwork.

That is crazy. I don't think your a bad teacher. It seems that they did not read the question (You did mention they don't read well). Maybe they didn't understand what they were reading. It also seems like they may not have studied the material, and just wrote some BS. Good luck this week. Sounds like you have to re-cap that entire lesson plan.

You are definitely NOT a terrible teacher! Some kids just write whatever they want and don't even read what the question is answering.. Some of those answers are pretty funny though..

Re: am i a terrible teacher?
honestly, i would meet with each of them individually and ask them how they came up with those answers. i would have open communication with the special ed teachers also...

You are not a bad teacher. I teach SS too and thats the type of answers that I get too. I find that many of the kids dont even read the questions.
Are you on the island or in the city?

Re: am i a terrible teacher?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
i thinks children have a hard time reading and processing questions. they see part of the questions and know something about it but never really answer the questions

Re: am i a terrible teacher?
Hey, I think you're talking about my 'colony' of Pennsylvania!!!!!! An interesting note; My 8th Great Grandparents, George and Anne 'Hannah' Wood, who were Quaker, were granted 1000 acres from William Penn on March 22, 1682, to repay the loan that William Penn owed them!!! George and Hannah emigrated in 1682, to America, from England, arriving in 1683. The land granted from William Penn, was in Darby, Pa. My 7th Great Grandfather, Richard Bonsall, married to the Daughter of the Woods, Mary, was the original owner of most of the land in Lansdowne, Pa. My 6th Great Grandfather, Jacob Bonsall, built 'Runnemede House', at 12 Owen Ave., Lansdowne, Pa, in 1732. In the info I've been given, it's rumored that George Washington stopped at the Runnemede House on the way from the Battle of Brandywine, while retreating to Valley Forge. And Jacob's Brother, Benjamin, had his house in Philadelphia, confiscated by British General Howe, who used it as his headquarters after taking the city of Philadelphia. ------- Taken from my ancestors reunion program, from 2003.
