Looking to move to Cleveland and buy a townhouse. What’s the best area for a young couple, no kids: Tremont, Ohio City, Duck Island or Gordon Square? Want something walkable and easy access to a nice coffee shop.

If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

How do you know if you're being passed over because you're "overqualified"? I'm not taking about people who apply to jobs that they're clearly not qualified for

Might be the wrong bowl but finding it extremely difficult to focus on work post busy season. It’s been 2 weeks since we filed and I’m still taking lots of naps and breaks (I’m talking like 3-4 cumulative hrs worked during the day). Idk if I’m taking longer to recover from busy season bc I’m getting old or if I’m over public accounting (but then where do i go). Tried to schedule time with a therapist but everyone has a months-long waitlist so next step might be trying to find a life/career coach

I’m in need of some morning meeting/ community building activities for Flipgrid or during Google Meets. Ideas?

Did any of you hear what Kenya‘s school plans are for this year!? They are canceling the whole year and everyone will start next year in the grade they’re supposed to be in this year.😳

Is there anyone on here that uses the Pearson reading series MyView. just need a little help

Hello...anyone can provide assistance with a 4th grade student struggling with reading. The student currently has an F in reading and the parents want to get at it early. Thanks in advance.

Even though life/ teaching isn’t normal right now- we still need to provide as much “normality “ for our students as possible. What is the funniest thing that has happened while teaching during hybrid or DL ? Make us smile. 😊

Good luck with the beginning of the year you awesome 4th grade teachers!! Go get em! You are amazing, intelligent, and flexible. You CAN do this!

Did anyone else adopt the new Florida Wonders curriculum? We just adopted it this school year, and I teach 4th grade. My team and I have not found a good flow, schedule, or whatever you want to call it. We feel like it teaches too many skills in one lesson, and we are not able to truly teach anything “deep” enough for students to master. Does anyone have any insight? What do you do? Do you like the curriculum? Why or why not? Would you be willing to share what you do weekly/daily? Thanks!

Hey 4th Grade teachers! What are some of the online tools/platforms you used during distance learning that you really liked? We use Schoology as the main platform in our district. I also used Flipgrid and ClassDojo but I heard ClassKick was better. Anyone use this before?

What are you finding that is important to your 4th graders right now? I’m finding that just spending an extra few minutes with me one on one -sharing something they have or did during our Google Meets is important. The uninterrupted attention is what my students are craving.

A warm recognition to all teachers who have become HEROES during this time of need for our communities. You truly are HEROES! ❤️. Keep being awesome...we’re almost there.

Does any one use Wit and Wisdom reading? I am looking for PowerPoints, Slides, Reaources, etc ...

I'm almost done with my master's and right now we are discussing the knowledge gap that happens in 4th grade with our lower-class students. They know or have the skills for how to read (for the most part) but seem not to be able to comprehend what they are reading due to the fact that they don't have background knowledge like their upper-class peers - which is due to life experiences. Have you noticed this in your classes? I have but didn't realize why it was so hard to catch them up.

Just curious to hear when everyone has their first with kids or if you have started already. In Wisconsin we start after Labor Day (September 4). Last day is June 5

Congratulations everyone! You made it to MEA break!!😄 I hope you have a restful break...or if you’re like me- get two extra days to plan for the rest of the trimester.

Let’s hear your stories. What has been successful for you so far this year and has brought a smile to your face? What has been the biggest challenge with DL, hybrid, face to face, or teaching/ life in general?

Has anyone found a mask that you really like? Can you share where you got it from please?

Just wondering we are adopting science curriculum this year, piloting mmh and studies weekly, any thoughts?
