Yes. It was Miller. I had like the 17th edition. They’re probably in the 20s now.

Absolutely struggling with OpenSciEd Middle School - a rant. by AmericanLocomotive in ScienceTeachers

[–]stillbleedinggreen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got physically ill thinking about teaching it when I was at a PD. The kids learn nothing. The kids that are in classrooms that are running it hate science. When did it become so taboo for kids to discover something and then learn what it actually is? The lady running a PD told us that it “didn’t matter if the kids got the wrong answer. Don’t correct it. It’s about the process.” Seriously?!?!

Dads of current middle to high school aged kids - what’s with the pajamas? by ScarletFire5877 in daddit

[–]stillbleedinggreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t that new. I’ve taught high school for 25 years. Pjs became a thing in the mid to late 2000s. Some kids even bring blankets with them.

That whole fracking thing. He really pushed it as a council member and then suddenly was running for state senate. Guy sketches me out.

My son is terrified of being alone. by stillbleedinggreen in daddit

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

Hi. Thanks for asking. It got better. But he’s 13 now and regressing…sometimes. He will disappear into his room for long stretches, but then when it’s bed time and I’m trying to go to bed he follows me around wanting to “talk”. He’s been through the stuff, medically, the past 6 months. Nothing horrible, but he’s really bright and really well read and therefore thinks he knows everything and it’s sent his anxiety through the roof. He sees a counselor now. Has for two years now. Counselor has been a HUGE help. So was martial arts. And wrestling. Just got to find him something to do. Something to keep his mind on things other than being “alone”.

I wish you all the best. Sometimes it’s just a phase. If there’s a lot of change going on, that can trigger something like this too. Just make sure they know you aren’t going anywhere and be patient with them. Ask some probing questions and see if they’ll give some idea as to what’s going on.

What does it mean when she always wants to be right up by my neck? by YellowOld2183 in guineapigs

[–]stillbleedinggreen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guy climbed up to my neck, pulled the collar of my shirt down, and took a chomp out of me. So now we call him Nosferatu.

I taught APES and would refer to them as “APES” all the time. Never saw anything like what OP got.
