From students showing up in costumes that are way too terrifying for school to teachers going ALL IN on spirit days, they're sharing their best Halloween classroom stories, costume wins, scary movie opinions, and the struggle of trying to teach while someone is sitting in class dressed as an inflatable dinosaur. But naturally, the conversation goes completely off the rails. They get into millennial parenting, kids becoming entirely different people when their parents walk into a conference, Gen Z vs. millennials, questionable school dress codes, childhood fashion, and why today's kids will humble you faster than anyone else. Plus, Hannah may have just created her new Halloween alter ego: Two Thumbs Steel. Grab your candy, pick your costume, and get ready for another episode full of teacher stories, classroom chaos, and way too much laughing. Listen now & don't forget to subscribe!

This conversation takes a look at every side of what goes into a fight, from the teacher's role, how bullying affects student behavior, angry parents and how we can learn how to emotionally regulate before things get out of control. In this episode we answer a lot of important questions: Should a teacher break up a fight? How should you handle a threat from a student? When should admin step in and when should you just handle this yourself? And how do you try and prevent fights from happening while getting bombarded with requests from parents, administrators and students? We even give the listeners some helpful tips on how to stay as calm as a teacher possibly can through social-emotional learning, grounding techniques and breathing exercises. But even if you're not a teacher, you'll find plenty of tricks you can use in your daily life. So take a deep breath, don't worry about throwing hands, sit back and relax and enjoy this latest episode of Teachers Off Duty. Listen now & don't forget to subscribe!

School lunches that just hit different, computer labs, field days, and always being on the cutting edge of technology are just a few of the highlights in this episode. Of course, there are other changes we've seen in education since the '90s, and our teachers touch on a bunch of them. Teachers working second jobs, school staffing, custodial shortages, freedom in the classroom... it's all in there. And if you've ever wondered what our panelists were like when they were in school, you're in luck because they all spill the tea about just what kind of students they were.
