Are there any adaptive phonics platforms you would recommend? I know Moby Max and Reading Eggs are some, but does anyone have any recommendations for others?

Any restaurant or recreational recommendations in Amsterdam? Heading there this week

Hello guys,

I recently joined cts its been a month and didn't received any project yet. Can someone help me with the bench policy of the cts.

I have been trying to get an internship for Summer 2023 and as a junior in college I’m starting to get discouraged. Any companies you guys recommend me checking out?

I’m a Management Information Systems major & not AS skilled in technology however I do want to be in a role that is related to my major. Any advice is helpful. Please share any contact details if you are willing.

Thank you in advance if you help out! Unfortunately I won’t be able to reply due to restrictions. Based in NJ/NY

I was a person who used to love to work. Then I started working crazy hours because of crazy project for almost a year. Felt burnt out and depressed. Took some time off (3 months) to calibrate myself. Now back at work but still feel so demotivated and cant help but feel work as a burden. Anyone feel the same?

Just got dinged from my dream job

Feels bad man

I’m a senior strategist interviewing for a senior strat role and I keep having HR ask what my strategic process. Isn’t it generally the same ? Stakeholder interviews data dump maybe consumer research cultural trends category dive synthesize that etc I find myself being too long winded. Are they looking for something higher level than that? Wtf?

There are never enough crackers in the fruit and cheese box. Won't stop me from finishing the cheese straight up though.

Anyone looking to buy an investment property in Austin?

Do any of you actually “slide” into DMs? I feel like that’s something I’d do as a college freshman to chase someone I met at a party the night before. As a professional it just seems creepy now, plenty of my friends were talking about it this weekend like it was the bee‘s knees.

I’m planning to do an Enrolled Agent (EA). Can someone please guide on the same? :)

I got my first pair of Figs scrubs, and I've never had so many pockets! Didn't realize I needed them until I had them!

I wouldn't trade him for the world, but I regret not sleeping with more women before meeting my husband

Hi Fishes... I have cleared interview with Infosys technical round, filled application & uploaded and there was managerial telephonic round scheduled on Friday... What wil be the expectations... My skill is SAP SD with 5 years of experience... Your inputs will be valuable and helpful... TIA..

Outside of formal wear. Any tips on cheap workout gear? Wanna look hot as my consulting dad bod develops.

Anyone else hate when there is a change in the routine because you know how hard it is for your kids? Book fair, spring concert, spring concert rehearsal & picture day this week 😭

I just scrolled through my contacts list on my phone and have no clue who many of the people are. Like “Amanda” who has a Boston area code. Who is she? When did I meet her? Why do I have her number? What is her last name? So many questions that shall go unanswered. Time for a purge.

What mindset quotes are you posting in your room?

I will be teaching creative writing as a class this years. Are there any other creative writing teachers on here? I only have two students and I was thinking about teaming up with another school.

Which of Shakespeare’s comedies works best with grades 9-10? I really like “Twelfth Night” and “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” I’m wondering if anyone has ever used “The Taming of the Shrew” or “The Merchant of Venice” and can give me students’ reactions to one or both. I’m really tired of R&J and they get tragedies in other grades. BTW-It bugs me that I can’t italicize book titles on this app. I’m I the only one?

Has anyone tried Empowering Writers?

I try to give my students feedback forms throughout the year. I teach on-level 10th grade English. There are some kids that just won’t write anything. They write “idk” or “nothing” in every question. It is so frustrating. How do you get them actually answer the questions and care?

Are any of the ELA teachers here also directing school plays, either by choice or by obligation?

I happily directed three plays a year for all 28 years of my career, but I know some teachers get "stuck" with doing the plays. I would love to be a resource, particularly for those in the second situation.

not sure what to do for Bell ringers... 11th grade English. I want to do SAT/ACT practice vocab. I would like to do grammar, but we're not allowed to teacher that in isolation.
Ideas?

What are your favorite activities to do with students once state testing is over?

I have noticed one of the newer fads in California is video essays. I am noticing that our expectations for writing are just diminishing year after year—or, it at least feels as so. Is it just me?

Several years ago, I stopped teaching Shakespeare plays line for line. Instead, I have the kids do a variety of activities to learn the plot, the characters, the history, the language, the literary devices. We watch the plays. We read and analyze the important quotes, soliloquies, monologues, and dialogues. How many teachers out there are teaching Shakespeare differently than the old standard: read an act, take a quiz? And how is that working? Are students more engaged? Best strategies?

Ready to stop NIGHT after the first half. The kids aren't really responding to it and I'm kinda over it. Thoughts?

We are adding a senior business English/technical writing course for next year. Does anyone have a textbook or curriculum that are you using that you like? We are looking at this for students who don’t plan to attend college.

Looking for teachers using the HMH Into Literature Curriculum… Our district just decided to purchase this last week and we have open house before our training. I need a school supplies list! Do kids need composition notebooks? A binder? Folders? Etc to go with this curriculum? TIA

How do you design your grading scale? I don't want to have my low kids have grades in the 30's because then they might as well not come. But, I don't want too many kids getting an A either.

I received an offer from a school that splits writing and reading into different classes. I guess I’m having a hard time figuring out what that would look like. I would be teaching writing. Any ideas?

What sort of books do you remember the most from when you were in school? Was it the stories that resonated with you or the assignments/lessons around it?

Anyone here do writing conferences with the kiddos? I teach 6th grade and I find it difficult to schedule time to meet with every student fairly.

I'd like to chat with someone who has taught multi-grade ELA classrooms at the HIGH SCHOOL level. If there is such a person or such a thing.
