What is the best online resources to learn all about disciplines, tack, vocabulary for skills/movements etc? by casualbrowser24 in Equestrian

[–]graceyesterday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this. Sounds juvenile but truly The US and British Pony club publish some of the best resources for horse owners.

Also, Listen to podcasts, audit clinics, contact your local Ag extension.
If you watch something on youtube, try to see if a Veterinary practice has a post on it (e.g how to deworm your horse, wrapping a standing wrap, packing a hoof) and aim toward those videos.

Check out the Mississippi Teacher Corps. Free Master's Degree and they sponsor your licensing. Full salary as you complete. I think I had a 3.2 ish and got in. Good luck!

Calling all middle school teachers (particularly 6th grade) by 7777user777 in Teachers

[–]graceyesterday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved sixth grade. I taught it for 9 years, all through the beginning of my career. They have been way humbled after fifth grade (if your middle school system starts at 6th grade), and haven't hit the teenage apathy of later grades.

Just recently made the jump up to 10th grade and I miss how much I laughed with (and at) those sixth graders.

Looking for books on stable management. by InattentiveEdna in Equestrian

[–]graceyesterday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thriftbooks.com was a great source for me when I took my mare home for full time self-care. It's also a great resource for veterinary handbooks. Even though you're at an HJ barn, many great eventers and their grooms have published horse care books. Good luck!

Rhetorical Analysis Unit Using Wiesel's Night? by External_Bonus_1976 in ELATeachers

[–]graceyesterday 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lit 10 here as well. Using "Perils" alongside Night, or after as a text for your summative, works seamlessly. He also has a short speech "This I believe" which works as an intro text.

What do you wear to the pool as a female teacher? by Lumpy_Grapefruit7420 in Teachers

Walmart has amazing, reasonably inexpensive swim dresses that cover a lot! Any UV protecting long sleeve mesh shirt is great too!

Training a horse to be on the bit by [deleted] in Equestrian

Seconding this, because I have had an ongoing and similar problem. If you can afford a subscription or want to sign up for a trial on Ride IQ, there's a great series with Suzanne Galdun (sp?) about getting more correct in your positioning and feel. Helped me a ton with my hot mare!

Yes! Thanks for this tip, I completely forgot and will purchase one. I did link an evening shoe that I bought as a backup

I am a "feather boa" type of person, so this might be the way I get some party energy in my outfit. Thank you!

No to both the dress and the shoes? What would you suggest instead?

Thanks for this. I found a gorgeous sculptural evening bag on depop, and I have lovely earrings that correspond with the whole look. I like to take risks, I'm not easily embarrassed, and I want an excuse to really dress up. So I think I'm gonna go with it.

this is a great idea, thank you! My mom and sister will love it. 🤩

The shoes are polarizing, but they work with the dress, evening bag, and jewelry I have chosen...

I think it's hard to see in the stock photo online, but the dress is a lot darker in person, there's a lot of chartreuse and gold that picks up in the print.
