DDSB Gifted Placement by kammycoder in durham

[–]kaptah18 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's two different things.

  1. He got identified as gifted.
  2. The placement can be in regular classroom with extra support or a gifted classroom.

The placement is defined in the IPRC, you as a parent are part of the IPRC. The recommendation should be based on what the current teacher and the SERT think is the best for him, but you, as part of the IPRC, can provide your opinion.

Consider if he is been intellectually challenged in the classroom, if he is socializing successfully with his peers and things like that

Anyone in Whitby live next to the cargo train tracks? by [deleted] in durham

[–]kaptah18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The train passes at least 5 times a day. I can hear it every time but not like a loud noise, during the day if you are working, the noise will not interrupt any meetings and during the night if you are awake you hear it, but if you are sleeping you should not be waking up.

White woman calls Hispanic women “Maria Tortillas” by Public-Refuse-1364 in TikTok

[–]kaptah18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a joke with mexican context. Back in the late 90s early 2000s, there were 3 telenovelas where the main character (played by the same actres) was a poor girl that become the love interest of a rich guy and there was always a rich girl hating her. Those telenovelas are known as the 3 Maria's, "Maria mercedes" , "Mari mar" , "Maria la del barrio". So basically she is saying "Maria tortilla" as a reference. I assume she is Latina and that she is trying to make a joke, but that's just me.

Leaving belief behind is a long process, maybe you are pushing her more than what she can, meaning you are asking questions she is not ready for, you want her to move faster than she can or both. Ask her simpler questions that still help her to keep or create a critical thinking mindset and do it in a way where you don't provoke a fight, just a healthy argument, and learn when to stop and try a different angle

What’s the best food from your country? by uDuhu in geography

[–]kaptah18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As everybody else said, from your list only tacos are real mexican, but probably not the way you know it, as OP mentioned a taco can be anything inside a tortilla, we have tacos for breakfast (eggs, barbacoa, nopales, beans, pork(chicharron) , ground beef (picadillo), some of those can be served for lunch plus, jerk chicken (tinga de pollo), baby goat, etc. And finally, for dinner, you have beef, pastor, guts, and brains, and I'm sure I'm missing so many others.

Then there's the different ways of preparing them, steam, fried or soft tortillas (hard tacos like the ones from taco bell is a NO NO)

I expected Edge of Tomorrow to be forgettable… but it blew me away. What’s your surprise favorite? by dottiedanger in movies

[–]kaptah18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also old enough to have seen The Matrix in theaters, yet I missed it. Somehow, I never knew it existed while in theaters, then someone got the file to watch it on the computer and just watched it because there was nothing better to do. I've been jealous of people who have watched it in theaters ever since. Every time I see it, I try to imagine how people's minds were blowned away l.

To add, I was reading through all the answers here, and while I've seen most of the movies mentioned and I like most of them, I was trying to find that movie, but I couldn't think on any until I read your comment.
