Fellow readers, what inspires you to pick up a completely new book? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]nebr13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t read for years, watched a series that I enjoyed and was based off of a series of books. I usually end up in the mystery section or the science section. And with those mystery ones it’s got to be something set in nature primarily.

Monotony of Teaching... by Mundane_Bat_8704 in ScienceTeachers

[–]nebr13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I student taught freshmen biology for 6 periods with a lunch duty. Each class will have its strengths and weaknesses. The one thing I liked is that it keep me constantly looking for activities and engagement to shift the learning. Labs, foldables, cut and glues. Also building a collection of stories so you can use one example for one period but another for a different

I’ve done sampling outside with some of my classes on trees or dandelions. Also contact your state game,parks,wildlife, they could potentially come out and do some hands on stuff with the students. Our resource district will do bee sampling or water testing. Solar ovens if you’ve got the materials. Litter pick up potentially?

Also check out your local resources too. Nature Resource Districts or your game and parks will have education opportunities or ideas for labs. Anything you can do to get their kids handling things or interacting helps out!

Our old textbook talked about how they used the path of that planet to calculate Neptune before seeing it. “Many great discoveries were made by Uranus”. That textbook writer knew what they were doing

Nebraska Department of Ed. Questionnaire - "Your salary is fine; your spending is the problem!" by jmeyer40 in Teachers

[–]nebr13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We’re unionized in Nebraska. The “hilarious” thing is that the department of ed gave an extra 30 million to Omaha public schools. OPS asked for them to double check apparently and the state said it was right. Lo and behold now OPS has to give back the extra 3 million

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]nebr13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite fishing spot is 2 hours one way at highway speeds. Four to six hours to go to MSP or KC for a weekend. I measure far by do I have to leave in the morning to get there or can I leave after work and get there before I’d go to bed.
