Survey for my dissertation

by Camilla Towle

Feb 15, 2017

Hello, for my dissertation I am conducting research into the negative experiences teachers face in the workplace.

I am finding it extremely difficult to find participants for my study as the specifications are specific to teachers (or student teachers). It would be a huge help if some of you would consider doing my survey, it takes around ...See More

EXERCISE ROLL CALL for Wednesday

by JRod

Feb 15, 2017

Trainer day!

Mom was finally feeling well enough that I could get to the gym. I did my 5 minute treadmill warm up when I arrived and waited for trainer to finish what she was doing.

Set 1, repeated 3 times (bodyweight) --using a 20 inch cube, inclined jump backs, 20 reps --using a 20 inch cube, inclined plank twists, 20 reps --usi...See More

Elaine/ret/IN FYI, jRod, if you're doing 15 reps, they are misnamed as "sissy squats." ;)

I walked 90 minutes today 10,313 steps. It was very cold and windy. I returned books to the library, so it felt productive.

One of my middle school classes has become completely obnoxious and unruly. Does anyone have any suggestions for me to get them back in control and less unruly? I am open to suggestions.

Free daily resource page - collaborators

Hi

I am looking for another ESL or English or home class teacher to collaborate with me and compare notes.

I plan to use this free resource in my class each day as the page is updated daily.

Who thinks this is a good way to start an ESL class each day?

EXERCISE ROLL CALL for Tuesday

by men

Feb 14, 2017

Just a quick report in. Got 19.4 miles in on the bike this AM. Went in to get lab tests as requested for my yearly physical only to find the doctor's office didn't send in the request from their end since the np prefers to see the patient first before doing any labs(makes sense to do it that way, but I was only following my written directions) Hope...See More

JRod Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

I couldn't get to the gym today. The pain meds they gave my mom worked on her back and leg pain, but the side effects concerned me enough to stay home with her. The meds made her nauseous and dizzy. She insisted I go to the gym and when I told her I didn't want to leave her alone, she said she would go with ...See More

DH and I walked 3-5 mi about every other day while there. Today I once again went to my local metropark and walked 4.5 miles. Nice to see so many reporting in on this Valentine's Day. 55 yrs ago my fellow j...See More

support from principal

by Fred Smith

Feb 11, 2017

I am a teacher at a new high school, and my principal has not fully backed me up several times. Right now, I have one student who is upset that the Advisory course is not "different" than what it is. I have incorporated more of what this particular student has said she wants to do in Advisory--preparing for college admissions and doing SA...See More

your principal is doing his job. it is NOT to back everything you do, but to back what makes sense to him from all points of view. Sounds like a great principal.

principal is doing the right thing A meeting like this is far more productive than setting ultimatums for a teenager.

I would come to the meeting with a list of what you have incorporated as per the student's suggestions, and another list of the work she has not completed.

I would speak calmly and explain that you value the student's input or you would not have adj...See More
