Are DSAP placement's only for public schools or are they also approved in private schools?
Hello all, hope your summer is going well.
I need three teachers to answer 10 questions that relate to the Connecticut Common Core of Teaching. It's an assignment required to obtain my teaching certification. Most importantly, at least two have to teach either in a diverse setting or special education. The assignment is due on August 3rd,...See MoreHello all, hope your summer is going well.
I need three teachers to answer 10 questions that relate to the Connecticut Common Core of Teaching. It's an assignment required to obtain my teaching certification. Most importantly, at least two have to teach either in a diverse setting or special education. The assignment is due on August 3rd, 2017.
I plan on asking teachers I know, but it might be difficult to contact them as I only have school e-mail address and phone numbers, not personal ones. I need signatures and a way to contact you for a form as well to prove the information is real.
If anyone is willing to answer these questions, let me know. My e-mail is porter underscore lindsey at y a h o o dot c o m.
Here are the questions:
1) How do you engage students in the classroom? Do you ask students a lot of questions? Do you host class discussions?
2) Do you incorporate your students' interests into every lesson plan or do you save their topics of interest for special days/extra lessons?
3) If you could only emphasize one social skill or ethical value in the classroom, which would it be and why?
4) How do you inform students of your expectation for the classroom? Do you write in the syllabus and expect students to go over it independently? Do you set the rules yourself or do you allow students input into how the classroom should run?
5) How do you ensure that transitions and routines run smoothly in the classroom?
6) How do you let students know they are meeting your behavioral standards in the classroom? Do you give general comments to the classroom or do you recognize students individually? Do you give physical rewards like candy or toys?
7) How do you address students who are not meeting behavioral expectations in the classroom? Do you have specific consequences for every inappropriate behavior or do you take independent factors of the situation into account?
8) When and how do you decide a certain style of teaching or a lesson isn't working? How do you adapt the plan to the students? Do you ask for the students input before changing the plan?
9) When do you decide that a student may need an alternative education plan such as a supplemental classes in a learning lab or an IEP/504 plan? Do you make that decision independently or do you discuss it with the student's other teachers first?
10) When does a situation merit a parent or guardian's attention? Do you think parents need to know about every behavioral issue their child has or any issues that are consistent or very disruptive?

I'm trying locate Mrs. Brenda Wells was my teacher at J.M. Wright Technical High School, Stamford, CT.
She was a great teacher and I would love to locate her and let her know how much I appreciated her kindness and love of teaching.
Is there a way to look up teacher in Connecticut?
Is the score that shows right after test the number right or number wrong?

Look no further than Massachusetts Maritime Academy’s 2017 Follow The Voyage program. This year, there will be cadets from Glastonbury, Eastford, Newtown, Kensington, East Woodstock, Stratford, Pawcatuck, Noank, Norwalk, Trumbull, East Haddam, Vernon, Milford, Norfolk, Greenwich, Monroe, Southington, Washington Depot,and Brooklyn departing on the TS Kennedy.
Massachusetts Maritime Academy is a co-ed maritime college located in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts that challenges students to succeed by balancing a regimented lifestyle with a typical four-year college environment.
The Follow The Voyage program is an online blog documenting the experiences of Marine Engineering and Marine Transportation majors taking part in Sea Term, a six-week learning experience aboard the academy's training ship the TS Kennedy. This year, Sea Term 2017 will run from January 8th to February 19th. When your students Follow The Voyage, they’ll feel like they’re actually on the TS Kennedy as they witness the day-to-day life and learning of cadets. They’ll also experience the food, art, and culture of the TS Kennedy’s exciting ports of call - all without ever leaving the classroom.
This year, the 2017 Follow The Voyage program promises to be better than ever! Not only will the lessons include real-life application of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), there will also be engaging activities that incorporate language arts, social studies, and character development – many created exclusively for Massachusetts Maritime Academy. In the past, the Follow The Voyage program has been geared towards students in grades seven and eight. This year, we will also involve students in grade two thru six. Massachusetts Maritime Academy will provide log books and maps to participating classrooms free of charge. We have also added an exciting community service project that will parallel the humanitarian work of the Massachusetts Maritime cadets.
A Facebook page has been created just for educators who will be participating in the Follow The Voyage program. Log onto and “LIKE” 2017 Follow The Voyage For Educators. Don’t miss out on informative posts as we countdown to departure day! Stay up-to-date on the TS Kennedy’s upcoming ports of call and preview curriculum activities. When Sea Term 2017 is underway, the 2017 Follow The Voyage For Educators Facebook page will be a great place for you to post updates share photos of what is happening in your classroom.
Mrs. Nancy A. Franks has recently signed on as the 2017 Follow The Voyage Outreach Coordinator. Having just retired from the Plymouth Massachusetts Public School System, she brings thirty-year years of experience and a wealth of amazing ideas and enthusiasm to her new position.
