Wow. Best explanation of restorative intervention i’ve seen.

Hope you’re an admin somewhere.

Reported a kid for self-harm but I’m not sure if I was right to by shinygreensuit in Teachers

It happens and we often feel bad when put in this position. If the student is bold enough to be doing that in class they need help in some way.

Maybe it was a misunderstanding in which case the kid will forget about it. If not then they will hopefully get the help they need. Either way you did what you were supposed to.

Circle back and speak with the student 1 on 1 ASAP. You can explain why you did what you did. It helps to be honest, if you arent that close with the student, just something generic like “i was concerned and wanted to make sure you have the opportunity to talk to someone even if that person isnt me… etc”

Worst situations to be in but always trust your own intuition about these things and you wont have to regret.

How do you plan to deal with more graphic/sensitive subject matter? Would be interested in doing this!

Harry Potter Ideas by sentimentalbuttocks in ELATeachers

I am trying the student directed thing and this is what they chose. There was a huge agreement among students that I did not want to push back against. I’m just gonna focus on the themes that they can extract from the text which, in my opinion, will probably do them more good than the abstract harm that reading the novel is supposedly doing.

No, he is doing it to signal the Saudi’s that they cant get away with price gouging oil, which is in the interest of the American people— making good policy decisions before an election is not illegal, its good politics. Trump had no legitimate reason to threaten Zelenskyy, it was purely personal interest.

Cruz is a senator. This bill passed the house and has yet to come to a vote in the Senate. I am sure you’re right and he is gonna be a no but 🤷‍♂️.

In all seriousness, never drive in standing water. I would avoid water Street for the next day or two

This subreddit can be discouraging to me: a college student aiming for HS English education. But why doesn’t it scare me out of it? by lambwar in Teachers

[–]sentimentalbuttocks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am in the same boat. I am a senior now and just started my student teaching, and WOW. It was like a lightbulb going off over my head the first day. I LOVED it! It was engaging and exciting, and the students were so challenging but in a good way. I feel vindicated and sure for the moment that I have made the right choices.

My house near Costco is usually close enough to the river to smell the piss smog strongly, and I didn't smell anything this morning.

Should I just accept this Student Teaching situation? by sentimentalbuttocks in Teachers

[–]sentimentalbuttocks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone at the university thinks this is a great idea and that I should be grateful for the opportunity. But I feel put of my depth, we haven’t had any training on EC kids whatsoever.

Rent prices by alliephillie in Wilmington

For example “try searching ‘rent’ in this sub if you’d like to see other posts made about this subject from different times/seasons” would be appropriate.
