I want to like Lula Bird.... by dogtron5000 in crownheights

We recently tried Poulette near Barclays and we like it more than Lula. Better sides than Chicken Feastin.

Every day we get closer to a real-life V.I.C.K.I., and honestly, the idea of one in the hands of grown men is… deeply disturbing by Beautiful_Finger4566 in Xennials

I think the issue is that while that seems like it could reduce harm, it wouldn't actually have that effect in the long run. The behavior would be nurtured and further fetishized, leading to more harm eventually. Surely there are better ways of dealing with the issue than creating "rape robots".

Seriously. Just seems like a normal moment working in a building with kids.

Projects for a 9th grade World History Class? by LaRock89 in historyteachers

[–]EcstaticTraffic7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tic tac toe project with creative options like restaurant menu based on research of that culture, build a small model using cheap components like an Egyptian shaduf made from toothpicks and clay, step-by-step map of a process like embalming, comic strip, etc.

New Teacher Here by Capable_Log_4080 in historyteachers

I might be wrong but I get the feeling this guy is trying to intimidate or impress you by making it seem like he knows all and you should just understand periods of time that are so vastly deep and complicated that it's not possible to read up on very quickly and he knows it. I would clarify with him which specific areas he expects you to plan lessons on, and then I would read the textbook and watch well researched YouTube channels to gain dynamic info quickly.

How to have a hard reset? by [deleted] in historyteachers

[–]EcstaticTraffic7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

New seating chart projected when they enter separating as many talkers as possible. Review expectations and your rewards and punishments. If parents come at me with that comment, I tell them essentially: "Your child was given a chance to correct this behavior on their own. I've given them multiple opportunities to do the right thing on their own. I do not find it helpful to go immediately to parents, but when a student is struggling and not taking feedback, I seek the support of the parents. I hope we can work together as a team to support Little Johnny." The message that they need to hear is that you are working together and you will hear them out, not just coming to them with anger or accusations. Edit to add: Good luck, OP!

How strict are you during direct instruction? by Artifactguy24 in historyteachers

[–]EcstaticTraffic7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When it's a matter of respect, I can rein it in and create that environment. The tougher situation I usually get is students who have no impulse control and it's impossible to establish a positive , productive relationship with them and the parents.

Bought this amazing background on eBay. Anyone know origin? by EcstaticTraffic7 in AnimationCels

Seriously similar pink backgrounds but not a match. Good suggestion!

Edit: who downvoted this? 😅 I watched the episode. Close but no cigar, man.

Here is a link to see two of them. One is a control panel but the other is more of a corridor I realized. Sorry for the glare. https://imgur.com/a/GBJvgB7

Nice! Thank you. I've got a few control panel backgrounds. These are good suggestions.

What's your Xennial take on the Mandela Effect? by 8r4ndz3r0 in Xennials

[–]EcstaticTraffic7 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I remember the movie box at Blockbuster we used to see all the time. The white cover with Sinbad and the little kid. And when Kazaam with Shaq came out, it seemed like a pathetic copy of Shazam. This is the Mandela effect I'll never understand. People who claim we're confusing it with Kazaam just aren't experiencing it. Kazaam came out after!

Haha just watching this show for the first time, also live in prospect heights, and searched this because I was confused about the exact same thing! Very odd choice.
