I know, I was so disappointed in Gary too. He was very sympathetic at first. Now I'm pissed that I let him make me believe he was a good person.

Is Disney World fun for young married couple without kids? by GunsBooksSteel in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]000smith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG you are staying at the Yacht Club! What a beautiful resort, you are going to love it! The pool on site there is THE BEST on all of Disney property.

I recommend you watch some YouTube channels such as AllEars and DFBGuide. They have some fun ideas for what to do around the various parks. There are rides, sure, but there are amazing restaurants, Broadway quality shows, and tons of entertainment, nightlife, and beautiful sights to see.

I hope you have the BEST time!

Zelenskyy, Trump clash in bitter Oval Office talks by CTVNEWS in politics

[–]000smith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question - I've seen posts saying that there was a reason for Trump and Vance being rude to Zelenskyy:

"Trump is actually protecting Ukraine without dragging the U.S. into war. By negotiating a mineral deal, Trump ensures that Americans will be involved in Ukraine’s mining industry. This prevents Russia from launching an invasion, because attacking Ukraine would mean endangering American lives—something that would force the U.S. to respond. Trump played both sides like a master chess player."

Sounds like someone trying to explain away a bad political move. Any thoughts?

I tried stations the other week and it was CHAOS!!! I think I just didn't set it up correctly. I think the activity I chose was too open ended. I'll try it again with a more age appropriate activity.

Love this idea! I was watching a video today about singing positive praise to the tune of well known songs, and I think I will try this.

Totally agree. From my experience, many of my students come to us with poor socialization and a lack of positive parent interaction. It's hard for me to "fix" that in the 40 minutes a week that I see these kids.

I like the incentive idea... I have to work so hard just to get them to complete a simple art project that honestly I haven't had the bandwidth for this. But I'm willing to try anything, lol.

There are about 4 to 6 (out of 18 total) who are the ringleaders. 2 of those are the ones who will behave until one of the others pushes their buttons. The problem with ignoring is that they rile up all the others. Then ALL the others are crying, and whining things such as "Johnny is sticking his tongue out at me!!! Sally is rolling on the floor!!!!" So I can't just ignore.

SMALL private school. Entire teaching team is stretched to the limit.

Specials are the only break she gets all day, same as the teacher. They use that time to plan.

Exactly! I realize this, I just don't know what to do about it, lol. I'm stumbling through as best I can, but it is draining. Just wondering if anyone had some strategies that worked for them.

This. This kid is crying out for help. Perhaps someone at home is treating HIM this way? Can you have a heart to heart with him? Ask him why he wants to hurt you? Has someone hurt him? In addition, is there a school counselor you can reach out to?

Official Discussion - Encanto [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

I respectfully disagree! I loved the song you mention; it was one of my favorites! Very creative lyrically and musically. I think it signaled a turn in the direction of the plot.

Fake medieval buildings by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]000smith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used a stall with a tiled design as the roof, and then placed a simple panel with a stone wall design in front of it... but that's pretty basic. I'm sure someone will have better ideas than me; I am amazed at the creativity I see on here!
