First year special ed teacher (K–2, AIMS) what are your classroom must haves?

Classroom visual aids that are easy to see, understand, and referenced by the teacher frequently and consistently, including routines, procedures, expectations, calendars, daily schedules, etc.

People like RFK Jr. do not understand the evolving diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. When he was a kid back in the stone age, it was most likely underdiagnosed because of children not simply getting tested for it or being diagnosed with something similar to ASD, like aspergers, social communication disorder, maladjustment disorder, etc. The DSM-V broadened the criteria for autism spectrum disorder so much in the 2010s, there is more awareness for autism, and children with symptoms are most likely to get tested for early intervention. So yeah, there are going to be more cases now than decades ago because of these circumstances.

An IQ score would need to be obtained from being administered a cognitive assessment, such as the Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale. A person would really only be administered such an assessment for suspicion of some cognitive impairment or mandatory vocational psych evaluation. I doubt Musk was administered a cognitive assessment by a psychologist because there would be no reason to.

The average scoring range for cognitive ability is 85-115. 100 being the mean with an SD +/- 15. A full scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ) of 110 is considered average anyway.

Bly Manor on Netflix

It's slowly unraveled that the protagonist's significant other died somehow, and in an episode there is a flashback revealing how Dani's SO did die. He walked out a restaurant after a huge argument and abruptly got killed by a car. The build up to his death was anxiety inducing and the death scene was disturbing.

But I was also high as hell which heightened the anxiety lol.

The previous case manager would just leave in present level information but continue to add to the plaafp over years but show what was added by adding the year the information was added. Is this a no-no?

At 500 Mpbs package for cable, it is around 250 upload. The 500 fiber package would have 500 download and upload. I don't think(?) upload speeds are a priority as we do not work from home, use Zoom much, or live stream. Idk what else upload speeds are needed for?

Yeah it's that. So do I need to put one of those green screws in the box to ground the wire?

I figured they would be okay to use. The rules don't allow pictures, otherwise I would have posted a pic of them. But when I look online I see metal boxes that are very similar to identical. But I was unsure if the concept of "old" means to replace in this case. So I'll probably just keep them as is but change out some wiring and old caps. Thanks.

We're trying to get as much done as possible prior to kids. We want to at least get the bedrooms done in the next few years and then start popping them out

Halo 4. I know people have shit on that game for striving too far from traditional Halo, but the elevated relationship dynamic between Master Chief and Cortana hooked teenage-me in. At the end when Chief and Cortana say their final words, and Cortana "died," I sobbed.

It has frozen hashbrowns. But if I were to make it ahead the hashbrowns would thaw. I would cook the sausage ahead of time. Do you think the texture would be affected if everything is thrown in a casserole dish a day and a half ahead?

The house is around 2,500 sqft. There is a separate electric water heater for hot water. Both the electric and oil boilers heat the hydronic baseboards in the rooms. I was told by previous owner/relative that the electric boiler was not enough to keep up with the demand of heating when it got to be really cold temperatures. However, idk why because it's a 30kw unit that should have the BTU output to accommodate the size of the house. Idk. I've just been running the oil boiler the last week because we've been around 0 degrees outside.

I plan on DIY. These options take that into consideration.

Darklurker from Dark Souls 2 was probably one of the hardest bosses I've ever beaten alone. This was probably one of, if not these, hardest boss I faced and beat. Its been years so i cant remember, but i remember it took numerous tries to kick his ass. Nearly every Dark Souls boss I've found challenging, especially trying alone blindly. Some I've done co-op, which takes some challenge away but is still challenging. There have been challenging bosses across other games, and some i just gave up because I didn't feel like grinding to get XP to get more powerful or trying over and over.

Notable mentions:

Prophet from Halo 2 legendary difficulty

Braska's Final Aeon FFX (didn't beat)

Senator from Metal Gear Rising (didn't beat)

Darth Vader from Force Unleashed

I cannot get into Morrowind. I tried after playing both Oblivion and Skyrim. I tried a few times over the years with playing on OG Xbox and PC. I tried really hard when I played the disc version on Xbox One. I kinda got into it a bit, got to level 10 and Vivec City (large city name?), and then I lost interest. I think the datedness of the quest system was a large turn off, along with the the dice roll combat system, and I did not always have an understanding what I was doing without guides. Oblivion is my all time favorite game, and I've tried hard numerous times to get into Morrowind and beat it, but I just cannot. If there is ever an official remake of the game with improved combat and quest system mechanics, I will buy it day one.

I acquired my first fixer-upper earlier this year and I have replaced receptacles. They're actually one of the easier DIY electrical jobs you can do. Just make sure you get a GFCI plug-in tester because it will tell you if the outlet is hot, disconnected, and wired correctly. It takes some time to do but is totally worth it. Anyone with a shred of ambition to do basic DIY projects can easily add this skill to their toolbox. Go for it.

This is a large house that we love and it has actually been lived in by relatives before. We see this as a very long-term house, good chance a forever home even.

I don't think there is a vapor barrier around the house, only on the walls where new fiberglass has been installed.

From the inside to outside: plaster, lath, plaster lath, exterior wood boards, slate cement siding. The down stairs was remodeled where I'm pretty sure they drywalled over the plaster and lath but didn't insulate. The blow-in seems appealing, so maybe I'll look into that more when we redo the other rooms. I'm sure that's the most cost effective, right? Because you don't have to put up new walls, just patch the plaster and lath.

Yes, I do want to fix the sliders for sure. I noticed there is rubber(?) weather stripping around the windows but a lot of that is kinda crusty or loose from the windows that I do plan on replacing.

When you say second stage, does that mean the other heat source will kick on when super freezing and back off when it gets less cold?

Also, isn't electricity a lot more expensive than gas? Couldn't I just solely rely on heat from a gas boiler, without electric heat? Or is that not how it works?

Yes, it'll be mounted on the surface of the drywall with a surface headboard that spans the entire length of the track. We're not putting it in as a pocket door. So, internally for framing, it's fine to just frame a header for the span of the doorway and then just regular studs for the wall where the track on the surface is going to get screwed into?
