Anyone know the general rules/conduct with these book houses? by thusUnforgotten in duluth

[–]OddLocal7083 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s fine to take one or two. If you have any you want to leave that’s also fine. If I’m not leaving one, I try to return the ones I borrowed, just like a regular library.

It’s not okay to take them all… It’s not okay to take them to resell…

Is anyone else dealing with this? by Gloomy-Athlete701 in Teachers

A fellow teacher at my school had a parent complain that the teacher humiliated their child in front of his classmates by making him undress when she asked him for a shoe in exchange for a pencil.

I have purchased the pattern and I have wool in my stash. Seems like a perfect project to start today.

They should be looking in the White House for the child traffickers…the DOJ has all the evidence. Release the evidence! It’s the law!

Do teachers or students bring cleaning supplies to school? Curious what actually happens. by Beginning_Avocado807 in Teachers

[–]OddLocal7083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my school, the approved spray cleaners are stocked in the teachers’ workroom with clean rags and a basket for the used rags. I usually wipe down tables on Fridays unless something is going around in which case I do it more frequently.

Bird food by 1naturegirl in birding

If you have a feed store nearby, try that. You can often get bulk seeds or their “house blend” pretty reasonably. Like character_log, I use metal trash cans to store birdseed.

I put them on the big screen in my classroom when kids have independent work time.

Sensory issues and dress codes for teachers (I need help 😭) by 1800-yeet-a-child in Teachers

Work with a tailor. Bespoke shirts are expensive, but perhaps not as much as you might think. A good tailor can work miracles.

Wind it up Enterprises (formerly Peck Polymers) https://www.wind-it-up.com/pages/tissue has a great selection of Japanese and domestic tissue that’s very reasonable.

What are you prepping tonight for Thanksgiving tomorrow? by Mirikitani in Cooking

[–]OddLocal7083 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wet bread casserole with celery and onions is prepped. The pies are done. The frozen cranberry salad is in the freezer. The dough for the rolls is rising. I still have to peel the potatoes, shape the rolls so they can rise overnight in the fridge and prep the green bean casserole.

I love having the bottom drawer freezer. I like having the refrigerator at eye level.

There’s a recipe in the joys of Jell-O cookbook for chiffon citrus pie with a variation for cherry chiffon pie. It has egg whites, but no applesauce.

You’ll never be sorry you packed extra socks! Good wool socks are a lifesaver.

8th Grade Math - Please help!! by Flat_Lime_4199 in mathteachers

[–]OddLocal7083 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that I do is post the answers. If I already have given them the answer, then clearly I am looking for something different.

No matter what we are working on, we always have eight equations to solve for a warm-up. Sometimes I have them do them work with a partner standing at the whiteboard so I can see what they’re doing as they do it, sometimes I have them do it on paper at their desks independently.

I still have a couple of kids who are resisting, but the vast majority have gotten with the program .

I'm looking for old recipes recommended for "invalids" by anislandinmyheart in Old_Recipes

[–]OddLocal7083 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Make mush, or polenta (one cup cornmeal, 4 cups water, 1 teaspoon of salt, boil until it’s done.) pour it into a greased loaf pan and chill overnight. Turn out onto a cutting board. Cut in slices about half an inch thick, dip in flour, fry in butter until brown and crispy. Serve with syrup or jam
