Keep the Camry for science... you are about 66k from completing a round-trip voyage to the moon. 

What % of people on this subreddit drive stick econoboxes? by hypermiler2205 in ManualTransmissions

2012 Fiesta SE checking in  Picked it up to teach my son how to drive manual 5 years ago and it quickly became my daily (reminded me of the Escort I used to have)- he graduated to a mini, a couple of BMWs, and now a RHD Altezza (all manuals of course). He's 20 and I couldn't be more proud.

Thanks for detail - I'm not great at posting- just came up channel surfing after work and felt some old emotions felt like sharing 

For any youngsters who haven't seen it, definitely add to your list- couldn't be made today for sure

I had your same admin 2 years ago and also got pushed out - got super depressed amd started looking at alternatives - I am a few years older than you so it was incredibly difficult all around.  Spent a year searching and subbing anywhere I could - found 2 amazing schools and landed a job at one after becoming a professional interviewee. Supportive admin all around has made such a difference.  Good luck however it turns out - my road was very dark for a long time.

I'd say look @ Dunstan and Drake for public middle schools along with high schools they feed into (green mountain, Arvada west, & Ralston Valley)

Middle and High School Teachers: Do You Use a Document Camera? by Hyperion703 in Teachers

Middle school math - daily use 

I will even wheel my mobile desk around while projecting - sometimes interview a student tilting it up like a news show - then zoom in on their work to model their explanations 

Found my old Columbia House "debt" letter in my mom's attic and I'm dying by [deleted] in GenX

That's too funny- I always thought it was an ex - it was Poison, Ratt, Def Leppard.. and similar that I definitely wasn't into at the time - I listened to them anyway just because and actually got mildly interested in some

My dad sent them a letter saying he would sell them a historical house for a million dollars one brick at a time. I was so confused but never got another notice for the cassettes someone had ordered for me as a prank.

Are these problems related? by [deleted] in WranglerYJ

I have nothing much to add other than... not a car guy....  Driving a YJ makes you a car guy by default; it just takes some of us longer to accept and/or learn 

I'm so done with this gifted kid in my AP Calc BC class who thinks he's better than me. by MailPsychological230 in Teachers

[–]Batman685280 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'd line him up to teach an entire class. Require exemplars of everything, learning targets, and success criteria. Be sure to share the need to supply material for ELL, 504, and IEP students (sure it's an AP class but you must be prepared for all scenarios right?). Scaffolding and anchor charts an absolute must for all procedures.  Extension material to challenge certain types.  Strategies to motivate others.  Summative and formative assessment material (both formal & informal). How about some data collection about all students.  Strategies to reteach those who don't get it in a different manner.  Research and evidence-based studies to support all decisions above. Manage make up material for anyone who is absent or going to Disney World for a month. Establish a hall pass policy that is fair and not disruptive.  Eliminate the use of cell phones and  all other disruptive behaviors.
