I need ideas for my low 6th grade reading students (I’m talking 5% and under percentile for MAP testing). We use Lucy Calkins which is ridiculous for these students that can hardly read and have major behavior issues. We have IXL which I have them use but I need more of a variety and I don’t like how IXL doesn’t teach them when they get questions wrong. These students refuse to do any work most of the time so it needs to be something they’ll want to do. They hate Achieve 3000 (most do lol). TIA

I’m thinking about moving up to a high school English position from 8th grade English. Mainly I’m looking for a change. Any thoughts on the differences I’d be facing?

I have high school children of my own, but disciplining high schoolers has always intimidated me for some reason. I have excellent classroom management, but I feel like high schoolers are a little smarter ab getting around rules and less worried about consequences.

I’m told by an hs tchr that the grading load is ab the same.

YOE in sales& BD ~ 6 years

I have 5 YOE in Analytics... always thought I wanted to be a DS, but every job (even the junior ones) required experience in ML development. Though I am part of the ML project, I'm not the person develop the model. And I have a hard time when the interviewer ask about how I develop the model and what hyperparameters I tuned. I know the thought process and stuff but 'I' wasn't the one who did that part in the project. How to convince them that I could do the job without taking credit of others.

Hi everyone, if you have got an offer from Big4 in UK, can you please share your base salary, core skill, designation and YOE?

Anyone have any good advice for getting students to think/respond on their own? So many times when I ask them to write their own thoughts about something and to explain why they hold that opinion, many students get stuck and/or turn to the Internet. And then I find myself repeating, I’m asking for YOUR thoughts about this, not someone else’s. I teach grades 9 & 11.

I’m a 7th grade ELA teacher in Texas!

When beginning a piece of literature, I first help the kids access the relevant culture. I have used web quests, but I have found that the kids researching their choice of topics and creating Slides containing information and pics results in more students participating. Recently they researched heraldry for the Medieval Era and reproduced either a family crest that they found or created their own personal crest. Anyone have other activities they use?

What are pet peeves you have as a teacher you have let go of? For me it is subject verb agreement.
