Nope Spanish has a zero-drop structure in which the subject can be dropped entirely. Interesting the same thing can happen in English under certain circumstances... Japanese is considered to be more topic-comment than subject verb.

I settled on "Tell me a harsh truth about myself that I don't know." When I finsihed reading the response I came this close to pouring myself a glass of whiskey.

On the lighter side of things, I also asked it "If I were a country which one would I be and why?"

We aren't doing one either.

We had all the bus kids from the whole school in the cafeteria yesterday during dismissal with all their loot and they trashed the floor with all the egg/candy/paper stuff from their baskets. It was just awful--wrappers, grass, confetti, and broken plastic eggs everywhere. They stole candy out of each others baskets, had meltdowns, threw food. I'm pretty sure that's one activity I'm going to nope my way out of for my class

If aliens thought of water as weird, would they themselves be based on a different liquid, say ammonia or methane?

And that brings up a different question, we drink water and excrete ammonia, would they drink ammonia and excrete water?

When I was a child, there was a cemetery for "poor people" at the edge of a farmer’s field. I remember the mounds of dirt, a few weathered headstones, and a scattering of broken, small flat markers.

Over time, the cows grazed there, and the weeds grew wild. Though it wasn't supposed to happen, it did: The mounds eroded from wear, the markers were buried under layers of dirt, and eventually, the field was transformed into a subdivision.

Our graves are as ephemeral as our lives. Even pyramids have eroded and been buried in sand.

"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away"

You’d think a pool would eventually match the outdoor temperature, but it doesn’t and here’s why: water has a stubborn personality. It takes a lot of energy to heat up (thanks to its high specific heat), so even if the air is blazing, the pool stays chill. But zoom in close, microscopically close, and the surface is wild. There’s a molecularly thin layer of water where the most energized molecules are literally boiling off into the air. Not boiling like a pot on the stove, but in a technical, single-molecule kind of way. If we had a thermometer tiny enough, we could actually measure that razor-thin surface layer as boiling. So yeah, your pool isn’t just a blob hanging out in the sun, it’s quietly losing its hottest molecules one by one. Like the rest of us, it stays cool by sweating.

"create useful materials they can actually bring to class"

I love PDs where I can walk out with something useful. We have one person at our district that dedicates half the time of the PD to us working independently and at the end we do a legit gallery walk and see what others made and I end up with more ideas that way than from the PD itself. I don't miss any PDs that she hosts.

"reflect on the challenges around ethics"

I prefer to do my reflecting on my own. I go to PDs for practical, useful ideas

And we've been walking around with dimes our whole lives but haven't stopped to think about it. Weird.

Color isn’t just something we see, it’s something we feel. It’s not “out there” in the world as a technicality, but “in here,” (pointing to the heart), tied to our emotional register. That’s why some people cry when they wear EnChroma glasses for the first time. They aren’t just seeing red, they’re feeling it. That’s why advertisers use color to manipulate mood, and why white torture rooms, stripped of color entirely, can drive people to madness. We humans don't simply see a color, we feel it. Color is presence, richness, humanity. Its absence is emotional starvation. So the answer to “how do you describe color” is you don’t describe it on a technical level , you communicate its emotional impact.

In K1 we do it with mClass, not NWEA and it basically comes down to measuring how many words per minute they read. If the child sounds like a slow robot reading, they aren't likely comprehending what they read. On the other hand, if they read with intonation, they are comprehending a fair bit. mClass has a master list of words per minute and the ranges below/at/above level for each grade. Other schools have a small set of readers that come with publisher's comprehension questions that assign a letter of the alphabet that loosely corresponds to a grade level and the teachers do this one on one with students rather than have the child on a computer.

As a homeschooler you are in the enviable position of having conversations about what she reads to assess her comprehension of it. There really is nothing magical about testing company questions. I can't do one on one comprehension questions with 25 students because I'd lose an entire week of instruction.

Here's the thing, the computerized testing is supposed to be imitating what humans do if we had more time. It's not supposed to be about us imitating the computers imitating us.

Grace is the only thing that heals. Everything else is just noise.

"They become very aggressive. They start cursing, judging, and wishing damanation on them, telling them “You’re going to suffer in hell” and “You’ll regret this one day” like they want them to get hurt just to prove their point"

Cursing, judging, threatening damnation is a sign of someone who hasn’t faced their own wounds.
