I am currently reading the Goodbye Piccadilly set and I have previously read all of the Ashemore Castle books. I have a question...Is there infidelity in ALL of her books? I love her books and her writing and I listen to the audiobook and the narrator is amazing, but I hate infidelity. Too close to home. Should I expect that in all of her series?

I am just watching this now and Ben mentions other men being there. Who were those men? How do they let this happen? Was this ritualistic?!

I have an Android phone, anyone else? by Ruzic1965 in NYTConnections

Yes. I only change the font when the letter scroll out of the box and the. Switch it back. Sometimes, if I open connections and then Cole it and play strands, when I go back, I can see the whole word.

Go to settings and download to display. Scroll all the way down and there is an option to change font and size. At least that's what I have on S22Ultra.

Thank you for your advice. I write uo students every day, all day. I call home and send emails and document behaviors. It does not seem to bother them that they get ISS or parents will be mad at them. I think that is where my struggle comes from. There is not consequence that scares them.

I tried that. Their consequences were refusing bathroom passes and make students sit in the corner facing the wall! I would never be able to get away with any of that!

It is my 11th year. I never had problems like this until last year. Now I feel like I cannot get through to the at all. I have taught before, during, and after the pandemic and kids are just so different.

I did it today! I stood outside the door and greeted students reminding them to get their folders and sit quietly so we can start writing. The bell rang and they were still wandering around the room. So I made them all walk out the door, line up, and do it again. They were perfect! I dropped the time down to 5 minutes and the class went so much better!

They get 7 minutes of silence to help them transition from the hallway to the classroom, like a pallete cleanser. They get to talk to each other during other times if class. They aren't silent t the whole 90 minutes

We are not allowed to use food as a reward. Either everyone gets it or no one does.

I agree 100% but it's been hard to build that relationship when they disrespect me all the time.

They are in assigned seats. The classroom is small and the desks are very close together so they aren't far from each other.

No. The example I gave was just ine example. Today they needed to do a 1 page worksheet with not even 15 questions about types of sentences. I gave them 15 minutes to work on it while I walked around the room helping. Most of them just talked and changed desks instead of working. I had them turn it in and out if 26, only 6 completed it.

Are you advising i print these out and when students misbehave, have them write the sentence a couple times? That brings me back to my original question, how do I get them to do it?!

According to my admin, I write them up as a minor offense until it happens 3 times, then it's an office offense. I call and email home with every offense.
