So I heard of a 6th grader paying another 6th grader $1 every time he threw the football to him at recess (there is a group of 6th grade boys that always like to play a touch football game). Is this budding entrepreneurship or should I be concerned?

It can be viewed as that, however, why is this kid paying to play? Is he a more vulnerable child? Like, is he being taken advantage of?

When my middle son was in 3rd/4th grade he would charge .25 or whatever for his dessert, which typically consisted of a few homemade cookies. I was not happy about it, but the other students did get something for the money. The example you gave is a little different.

What was your first impression?

I honestly was shocked that something like that was going on. Like it isn't the worst thing in the world but I think its best that things like that aren't going on. My friend is their teacher and she said she was going to talk to the parents, I think I probably would too.

I'll share my experience and urge you to share yours:

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

A. >75% iOS users denied tracking. They are no longer tracked across websites/apps. Facebook lost its edge.
B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

What's your experience? Let's all learn.

Question about IEP goals if anyone can help. If a student has an OT goal (say being able to zip coat or put on shoes without assistance) and the IEP says person responsible is the OT, is that all on them? I understand I could also work on it too in class but when IEP comes, they are responsible for writing the IEP portion and talking about that? Same with speech and language provider?

I love my job in special education, the job may bring quite a bit of stress and exhaustion but nothing compares to the stress of the related service team. OT, PT, speech, BCBA, social worker, etc etc is really what’s killing me this year. It is 23 days into the school year and the team members all make different plans and as a result, nothing is being accomplished. And if paraprofessionals follow ie what OT says but not PT, it cause so much unnecessary conflict!

I keep being told what I have to do, but no one will show me how to do it. Be very careful how you word IEP’s without being given. The wording. I have been here 2 years as an intern.
