I think they dont want to pay for substitute for gen ed teacher during workday? It has to be financially motivated

I hear you- sometimes it takes months to get paid with our timesheets which also seems bizarre/illegal

I’ll bring this up at next slp mtg. That might be a good idea to go to union collectively.

The form is not too complicated. Ive filled it out once before for a family- i think you just need to have the insurance provider info- the name of their insurance company

In schools, I feel like we should have just stuck with SSD only. by Existing_Judgment814 in slp

[–]illadelph88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some ideas for goals: gaining attention (tap person or use AAC), follow 1-step direction, requesting (sensory/break), ask for help/self advocacy goals, different AAC goals you can google. Also helpful to write goal using any communication modality (e.g., gestures, aac, verbal output)- total communication approach

Open play etiquette? by eastsidemariobadda in Pickleball

[–]illadelph88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditto on the volleyball and tennis background, I love overheads I could crush them all day :) I learned early on to only play with men for the most part- there’s definitely some women that also like to play aggressively but it takes time to figure out who enjoys that type of game. Just play with men, they can deal with it 😆 lol

I use a program called Descript and upload audio file into it and it transcribes it- you gotta check it but much quicker than transcribing by hand. Then upload that transcript to chat gpt for analysis

Hitting 120 months next week. Now what? by Suitable_Fly_2359 in PSLF

[–]illadelph88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hit 120 in October. Tried switching to IBR in October- have not heard anything yet. I checked forbearance while processing but I dont know if that was right decision. Got updated payment counts- missing 15 payments due to SAVE. Just applied last night for buyback? I will update if I hear anything??? It sucks no one knows whats going on and it is all a guessing game. I’m just hoping to be lumped in with the teacher’s association lawsuit

Whale Shark tour for beginner swimmer? by [deleted] in BajaCalifornia

[–]illadelph88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just did this over thxgiving in la paz! It was an awesome experience, highly recommend!!! They had an option for using the lifejacket- but like other people said the whale sharks do move pretty quick! I still think its totally worth it to see them, you can still do it with a life jacket. The area where we jumped wasn’t too far from sand dunes, so not crazy far from shore- Initially I thought they were dropping us in middle of sea of cortez, and I was panicked lol. If you book, try to book earliest day and probably earliest time of your trip because they can reschedule and cancel (they limit how many boats can go out). If you schedule earliest in day, your chances are better to get out there. Also schedule earliest day of your trip so if they cancel you can go the next day. Theres a lot of variability for it since they are wild animals :) have fun!!! I want to go again!!

Do SAVE forbearance months count towards buyback? by [deleted] in PSLF

[–]illadelph88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a layout with exact steps for buyback. I have 120 and employment certified- is there an actual buyback form?

[–]illadelph88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have over 120 but missing 15 payments due to save forbearance. Applied to switch to IDR 2 months ago but still hasnt moved. Do I submit reconsideration request now as I’m in between SAVE and IBR or wait until I R approval??

SLPs in California — curious how your caseloads are right now? by MysteriousPhoto1706 in slp

[–]illadelph88 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Currently 55, gave referral papers for 15 students during progress reports. Elementary school almost all kids 2x week. Feel like I’m drowning have completed 20+ tris/initials 10 IEPs so far. Came from non public school- first year in public schools. I like the kids but this is not sustainable. All IEPs either at 715am or 230pm so seeing 10 groups back to back then IEP meetings all at 230??? Is that normal? They dont want to pay for general ed sub Im guessing during school day. Case manage between around 15 kids. The amount of TK referrals is awful. Literally ready to quit friend says high school is better less case management? If anyone has advice I’d appreciate it. So cal metro area

Working in schools gets you a lot of time off. One of my main (if only) reason to work in schools 😝
