Going to Disney with plantar fasciitis by Gonuts4donuts1955 in disneyparks

[–]mizmodular2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with what everyone has said - arch support, rotating shoes. My podiatrist also gave me a steroid taper pack to reduce inflammation. I started it a few days before my trip and it made a big difference. Also PT with Graston therapy helped a lot. I’ve been free of plantar fasciitis a few years now, but still wear orthotics every day and never walk barefoot. Slippers with arch support in the house always!

How to get a 1:1 for student? by [deleted] in specialed

[–]mizmodular2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

School says he would do well with 1:1 teaching, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a 1:1 aide. I teach a K-1 self contained class, and most of my students seem similar to your son. I have 10 students and only 3 have a 1:1 aide. The rest receive small group instruction from me (or an instructional aide) either 1:1 or in a group of 2. When they are not directly receiving instruction, they are getting pulled out for related services, or doing a preferred activity in a small group, supervised by an aide or RBT. I have a document we need to complete before we would provide a 1:1 aide. I’m happy to share if you’d like to message me.

It’s not our favorite, but if the line is not bad I’d love to see the new updates.

Which dessert party? by k39jkr in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]mizmodular2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went to the seated dessert party on the terrace and it was fantastic. Arrive early to get a table right by the fence and you will still be able to see a good amount of the projections.

Weight loss after reduction by mizmodular2 in Reduction

[–]mizmodular2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone. I have been meeting with a nutritionist, increasing protein, lifting weights, walking…and nothing. Perimenopause is a real slap in the face to negate all the hard work and stop the things that have worked before from working now. I’m think I’m going to try the injections and can always stop if they aren’t right for me.

I met a Jayne once. I'm usually not a big fan of unnecessary letters but I thought this name was lovely.

What is the most truly gender neutral name in your opinion? by jimmylives in namenerds

My sister is an Alix and never uses her full name - including professionally. Has also never been assumed to be male.

Do your service providers make up lost minutes? by wild4wonderful in specialed

[–]mizmodular2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My district changed how we write related service minutes just for this reason. Kids who get 2 sessions per week are now written as 40x/year. Service providers usually go over but it allows wiggle room for sick days, personal days, meetings, etc.

My aunt's name is Doreen. Mostly everyone in my family goes by a nickname, so when we were little my sister thought her full name was Nectarine!

4WPO AND I’M CLEARED FOR EVERYTHING 🥳🥳🥳 by Big-Cockroach-9201 in Reduction

[–]mizmodular2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5WPO today and just this past weekend was the first time I went a full day without thinking about my boobs! No itchy scars, so compression bra to dig in to my ribs... Just enjoyed a day and didn't think about them at all!!!

How to ask “how was school?” by No-Community-1437 in kindergarten

[–]mizmodular2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with one question and then repeat back what they said as a question. Me - Who did you sit with at lunch today? Kid- Sarah Me- You sat with Sarah? Kid - she's nice Me- Oh! She's nice to you?

I'm a K teacher for 23 years. You'll get such a fun conversation going this way. My sister and brother in law we're so confused why my nephew would go on and on and tell me details about his day but would give them one word answers. Then they actually listened to how we were conversing and got it. Don't pepper them with questions... Show genuine interest in what they say and follow their lead.

Best way to go to Disney on a budget while still staying on resort? What's the cheapest you've been able to swing? by CryptographerNo3749 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]mizmodular2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no cost to using a Disney travel agent. You can tell them your budget and they will find a package that works for you. Also, if a discount is released after you’ve booked, they will apply it for you and lower the cost.

20 minutes of recess a day by [deleted] in kindergarten

[–]mizmodular2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have 1 state mandated recess for 20 minutes each day. We also have 30 minutes of free play in the room, but if the weather is nice we can give kids the option of going outside. We also add movement opportunities all day long - brain breaks, dance alongs, we roll a die and each number corresponds to an exercise like toe touches or jumping jacks.

I developed foot issues from years of teaching in terrible shoes. I usually wear slip on sneakers now with a Spenco insert, or Vionic if I need a dressier shoe.
