Quote from: Aristocrat on July 24, 2017, 01:07:28 pmStarted camp and did a scavenger hunt. Spent a lot of effort hiding the items in 16 locations all around the school. I also made clues for each of the 4 teams. Started the game and found my CT following the students telling them EXACTLY where each thing was hidden!This sort of thing drives me up the wall. What compels some teachers to do this, lol?One of my coTs does this for every class. The laziest, most unmotivated students don't mind it, but a lot of the students get visibly irritated with her because she doesn't give them a chance to think things through at all.

The laziest, most unmotivated students don't mind it, but a lot of the students get visibly irritated with her because she doesn't give them a chance to think things through at all.It was especially infuriating as I went through a lot of effort in order to make the scavenger hunt fair and balanced. Each team was comprised of a combination of strong and weaker students, the 16 hidding spots were divided into 4 sets (set 1 being easy to find and set 4 being harder to find). Each team had 1 hint from each set so they'd have 1 easy, 2 standard and one challenging clue to go on. I also put mechanisms in place to make sure teams couldn't 'steal' the treasures others had clues for... It was fair, balanced and fun.Thanks to her, a 20-30min scavenger hunt lasted just over 5min.
I'd have lost it. I am really glad I don't teach camp with a particular coT who likes spoonfeeding the students. She'll even translate "who," "what," and "where" for them FFS

Next camp theme is going to be "play handphone games for 3 hours" or "destroy the classroom" or "kick each other in the head, last student alive wins" because those 3 things seem to be the only things the kids are interested in doing.
My coteacher and I spent a little bit of money so the kids could have lunch (and not cup ramen) because the admin wanker said no budget for you! Yet the music camp get kimbap from a local shop delivered. When we asked him about that, he said they music camp asked first, so now there is none left. So we are sitting there just getting our food ready, shit for brains comes in and thinks he is going to eat some of our food because it's better than kimbap.Coteacher dishes out the food, first to the children, then to me, then to himself, leaving nothing left. Turns to the admin guy and says, now there is none left. Admin guy goes off in a huff taking his empty plate with him.
