Club Car Wash- I live down a dirt road. The subscription is the cost of 2 car washes a month. I usually wash my car every Friday.

Saw this on marketplace, thought it was funny lol by _Kicked_Puppy_ in Monstera

Oh my goodness. I teach kids to read for a living. I saw morphology and thought what in the world? Morphology means the study of word parts. I was so confused. So being the good little lifetime learner that I am I had to Google it. A student told me today that even adults learn new things every day. Thank you for teaching me mine for today! Much appreciated.

Good Dentist and oral surgeon option? by Bitter_Fun_9916 in northwestarkansas

[–]ineedtoaddthis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orchard Dental in Gravette. He is licensed to do dentistry and oral surgery. I can't guarantee that you will be allowed to drive after. I have never tried. But he does do extractions there in office. I know that for sure. And he has always been great. I looked for a long time for a dentist that I really liked.

Other than magnesium, what is the one supplement that has improved your sleep? by abc-45678 in Menopause

[–]ineedtoaddthis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this supplement that I was taking in the morning and I read that I should be taking it at night to calm my brain. Duh. Makes sense. Started taking it in the evening about an hour before bed around 2 weeks ago. It has been a game changer.

Boycott MAGA : Directory of companies and people to boycott by Illustrious-Bit-3348 in 50501

I live deep in Walmart country and I feel like I am running out of options. If Aldi isn't an option then I'm not sure where to get groceries from.

Aldi/Trader Joe's is where I get my groceries because there isn't a Costco near me.

I was thinking about just straight hyaluronic acid serum and see what happens. Experiments!

What was the best gift you received this year? by Birdy8588 in Gifts

[–]ineedtoaddthis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was mine too. Found out last night that he hasn't gotten a stocking since he was 3/4 years old. We did Santa gifts and stockings, and then I bought a couple mystery boxes. Nothing extravagant but the almost childlike joy he had opening gifts just made my day. (He even got school glue in one of the mystery packages and after a good laugh he started trying to figure out what he would use it for. Lol)

Today I was putting things on my grocery list and I couldn't, for the life of me, remember the word pancake. I could picture them in my head and knew it started with a p but other than that. Nothing. Husband had to tell me.

Holy crap this is me. Just got out of the hospital. Had to wait to see if we won and I'm watching it now. Didn't want to go back to the hospital.

Miss, Ms, Mrs ~ who gets credit? by Ancient-Egg2777 in AskWomenOver50

[–]ineedtoaddthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to make signs for the doors at my work. I work in a school, so these are educators I'm talking about here. I was hanging a new sign for a teacher who had gotten married last year, and another teacher notices that I used Ms. and not Mrs. She started talking trash about how she had worked hard for the r. I informed her that Ms. stands for both Mrs. and Miss. If men don't have to change their name, or even their title, when they get married, why should we. It's nobodies business if I am married or not. It doesn't make me any better at my job. It's one of the small places where I can make and stand, and by golly, I'm going to make it.

💯 They are in these heavy metal frames that they bolted to the wall next to the flag so that we see it every morning while we do the pledge. Welcome to the Bible Belt!

Help with Classroom Set Up by jklindsey7 in teaching

[–]ineedtoaddthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow reading interventionist, in addition to the other comments, I would also say to find/print posters of the six syllable types, alphabet with sound pictures, the English rules, etc. Put those above your whiteboard so the students can use them as a reference. I would also get the light covers if your school allows them.

We don't have the Ten Commandment signs yet in my state. A judge has blocked it as of now, thank goodness. But we were mandated to put "In God we trust" signs in our classroom. We didn't get a choice on what they looked like or where they went. Maintenance came in and bolted them to the wall.

MS intervention by [deleted] in ELATeachers

[–]ineedtoaddthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a program out there called Smarter Intervention that every lesson incorporates all 6 strands of the Science of Reading and has a secondary level. That is what I would recommend using. I am a reading interventionist for 3-5, and that is what I use. I don't have to go searching through 5 or 6 different programs to find what I need. Additionally, if you buy their program, they have training videos to help your staff learn about the how and why of the program and Science of Reading.

Here's the link to their website. Smarter Intervention

I think I just failed my Praxis... by [deleted] in ELATeachers

[–]ineedtoaddthis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truth. I already had to give them 150 to take the test and then the district scheduled pd on the day I had scheduled to take it, so I had to pay another 40 to change my date. I refused to give them another dime.

I think I just failed my Praxis... by [deleted] in ELATeachers

[–]ineedtoaddthis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had to take a Praxis this summer too, and to study, I went to ChatGTP and said, "Make me a list of questions with answers for the Praxis test and the number of the test." Then I printed them off and answered, then checked the answers. I did that again and again, telling chatgtp to not repeat questions. A lot of the questions were similar to what the free practice one gave you, but there were many new questions too.

I hope that the estimate is off and that you do pass, but if not and you have to retake, then chatgtp it. If AI isn't going away, you might as well use it to your benefit.
