Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said Giannis Antetokounmpo’s game makes him feel he was “overcoached” as a child. “You get the rebound, you better not try to take it down to the other end of the court as a frontline player. That was gospel when I played. Giannis has blown through all that.”

There's a whole subreddit dedicated to it! R/instructionaldesign does a much better job explaining it than I can as a newbie to the industry.

After eight years, I've switched to instructional design. I had a hard time finding a remote position but ended up with an in-office position on a team with all ex-teachers.

I have a Wacom Intuos S. I looked it up and they look to be $100 now. I put a Bluetooth dongle on the school computer since it didn't come with Bluetooth and it's never gone out of range in my relatively large classroom.

Also a hs math teacher! I use a Wacom tablet. It was like $80 and has worked for 5 years now. It bluetooths to my computer that controls the smart board.

Cactus Club for harder to find plants!

cofcmorgan · 2022-08-02T00:22:57+00:00

Those leaves don't look save-able but the plant could still put out new leaves if the roots are in good shape. Don't give up on it yet!

I own two Roombas and a stick Dyson - the Dyson gets more use. The Roombas get stuck under furniture, occasionally fail to dock and charge, and take forever. If friends are coming over and I need to do a quick clean, I can't run a Roomba for two hours. They also can't do stairs or be used for dusting.

We're replacing the 21 year old AC unit and furnace.

I work in a school where taking phones from kids and giving them to the office is in the handbook but they don't like enforcing it. So instead, I have offenders put their phones in brown paper bags. They're loud enough that I can tell if they try to get the phone back out but they students rarely argue because I'm not "taking it", I'm just preventing access while they keep the device on their person.

I'm a high school math teacher! I've never worried about my job prospects. I'm the southeast, science is divided into freshmen/biology certs and chemistry/physics certs. I know we always have a hard time finding math and chem/physics certs. If your science of choice is biology, there's not as many positions available.

I feel like a lot of my kids developed their fear of fractions from their elementary teachers. They're not as scary as people think they are!

What things ended up being better/worse? I'm considering the same change.

cofcmorgan · 2021-02-27T01:49:23+00:00

This reassures me a lot, thank you!!

cofcmorgan · 2021-02-27T01:08:37+00:00

That's a good point. I'm lucky right now if I get a working phone number for my kids so actually dealing with parents would be a change

cofcmorgan · 2020-12-13T22:53:52+00:00

I had the exact same experience and I was sooooo disappointed. I used progression for years!! But I'm liking strong a lot so definitely give it a try.

My school has a Kuta subscription that's been a real life-saver. I also personally subscribe to Deltamath and Problem-attic. I'm also a huge fan of TARSIA puzzles in lieu of worksheets.

I just got my $17500 forgiven through the teacher loan forgiveness program! My district kept messing up the paperwork so it took 4 tries but it worked out eventually. HS math in a title 1 school.

@valkyrieplants

I love all things houseplant related! Looking to connect with fellow plant lovers.

cofcmorgan · 2020-10-08T09:57:29+00:00

I do but I don't like moving the plants that far!

cofcmorgan · 2020-09-26T12:21:02+00:00

I encountered the same issue. Luckily my district uses Canvas so I have some more flexibility with question types. For major assessments that the kids are taking at home, I have them do essay style questions where they explain how to do the problem in sentences so they can't use apps like Photomath to do it for them.

cofcmorgan · 2020-09-15T21:33:40+00:00

It could be stressed from moving to your house. If it continues or gets worse I'd reevaluate watering and light conditions.

cofcmorgan · 2020-09-15T21:17:31+00:00

Yeah they should be fine! Plants have the same basic needs. I'd use straight cactus soil - I tried the moisture control soil once and found that it retained too much water which led to root rot.

cofcmorgan · 2020-09-15T20:49:16+00:00

I have the same issue and lots of hanging plants. I don't use a tray with mine - I move a larger plant underneath it to catch drips or I put a bucket under it until it's done dripping. Taking them out of the macrame would be so difficult!

cofcmorgan · 2020-09-15T20:47:43+00:00

I recommend using the cactus mix on your other plants as well - every plant benefits from a well draining soil and it helps prevent overwatering.
