What have you found to be good ways to help bridge gaps left from time out of class due to Covid? I teach 6th grade. We use iReady but feel like there are other sources I could use that would help fill in learning gaps.

Any news on vedder price? I’ve heard they didn’t fire anyone during COVID but have also heard it’s a sweatshop. Any insight to their litigation team would be helpful, thanks!

Did anyone here test positive for COVID after atleast one shot of vaccine?

I come from a hospitality background (2 years of work ex internationally) and have ventured into IT during covid in an implementation role. My total IT work ex is 1.5 years. Currently I’m being paid 15LPA and hold an offer at another company for 23LPA.
I have don’t have an IT related degree but have managed to do some certifications last 6 months. Can someone suggest me what courses one should do if I’m in a techno/functional role to progress and enhance my learning curve?

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks

Anyone familiar with Covid Supplemental Paid Sick Leave in CA? Does having planned time off nullify a full time employee’s ability to use the C19 sick leave if they become sick just prior to the planned time off? (I’ve only been able to find references to eligibility being based off of hours work preceding C19 sick leave - nothing about planned time off)

If your industry is severely impacted by covid, how is your leadership reacting? Are you seeing more cross-industry collaboration?

Masks at open houses?

With flu season (and COVID season?) just around the corner, I’m thinking of asking buyers to mask up at showings. Good idea or am I going overboard?

New York folks:
Are you aware of the CPA exam credit extension to 2021 for NY CPA candidates impacted by COVID19? It’s on a person-by-person basis and you need to request the extension. Has anyone tried doing this yet? Can anyone shine more light on this? The extension would really help me, but I’m not sure what more to tell them in my email than the fact that I couldn’t sit for the exams this Spring/Summer due to test centers closing in NYC.

Anybody else in the banking sector and feel things have been so much more hectic since covid?

I made a reservation for my family at JW Marriott in India and they found someone dirty clothes and underwear near lamp in the room, the Marriott people came and cleaned the room and offered free dinner
I feel really terrified where on their website they say we clean do well and this happened with COVID going on. Should they compensate me with points?

Advice and tips for a first time rental property investor?

I am 24 saving up for my first property to purchase at the end of 2021 / early 2022 in the Long Island, NY area.

I’d like to save up around $50K in my HYSA for a property <$400K in LI. Does this sound reasonable?

Does anyone have any advice on investing in the LI area (best location, SFH v MFH) or just general first time rental property buying advice?

Thanks all

I’ve been interviewing for new positions to leave PA. But in my current position, we’ve been adding quite a few new projects (and our team is partner, two staff, and me) that will probably start over the next couple of months. I don’t think my boss has any idea I’m looking to leave - anything I should do to not feel guilty about potentially leaving them short staffed with a ton of work? Is this something you think about when looking to leave?

Hello everyone! I'm a Paralegal in Michigan with over 7 years of Paralegal/Legal Secretary experience. I'm looking to transition into an in-house Paralegal position either here in Michigan or remotely. I've already applied to a few places, but I wanted to check here to see if anyone else can refer me to any in-house job postings.

Anyone else have a positive screener interview with HR, good thank-you email exchange follow-up, and then not hear anything for over a week? This doesn’t seem normal…but I’m still waiting.

Let's talk unhinged pro se opposing parties. We have one that emails the entire firm every few days with these SCREEDS that are like weird stream of consciousness accusations of baseless criminal and unethical conduct. So far there have been 2 emails already today. A GAL has been appointed and ordered to do a psych eval on this party, but is there any sense in responding in the mean time? Everything we say seems to get twisted.

Any suggestions??

Just got moved into 6th grade math for the upcoming year! I’m feeling big nervous excitement ! 😁😁

I found using GoFormative’s free version to be very helpful in teaching new topics to my students. I embed videos I make demonstrating how to complete a question, next I ask them to complete an example showing work, and then the next question they type their answer so it automatically alerts them to see if they answered correctly. It can be used live in a meet and on an independent virtual day. In my google meets, I’m able to give feedback on any question they have trouble with in real time.

Thoughts on Engage NY/Eureka math...

Anyone out there use Assistments? If so, what has your experience been?

I need some help. I have had a bad day personally. I’m trying to think of a first day virtual activity. I’m 100% online. I teach 10th and 11th Algebra 2 Honors. We are using Google Meets. I thought about doing a logic puzzle after the presentation. And I’ve also thought about starting notes.

Does anyone else use Illustrative Math in 6th grade? I have a spread sheet of resources I can share if others can do the same!

We will be administering the Algebra 1 End of Course Assessment next week.. what are some ideas for recognizing those who perform well as well as those who've had significant increase from previous scores?

"Making Grades Matter" standards based grading in a Secondary PLC at work
by Townsley and Wear.

Anyone at a school that has implemented this?
I'm curious what the results are

I teach 3rd grade Math. I am looking for ideas for math centers, that focus on fact fluency.

I finally was able to convince my principal that we need a consistent math intervention at the MS level (grades 5-8). (Right now, we are just "doing our own thing," which isn't helping students progress much.) Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be beneficial to have some sort of progress monitoring tool as part of the program, if possible. Our classes run roughly 55 minutes (which is too long for an intervention, in my humble opinion).

Thanks for any advice.

Would anyone be interested in participating in a research study? The only requirements are to be a school district employee and have a child in the district with special needs. Please help!!!

How do you incorporate warm up/bell ringer problems so that kids actually complete the problems and not just use that time to socialize?

What’s your opinion on math homework? I teach 4th grade and have always given it but I’d like to see what others do and weigh out if it’s really worth it. If I give it, I feel like I should spend class time going over it but on the other hand I stress myself out trying to keep the absent work organized and those that don’t even do the work.

Does anyone else have to wait until they have all assignments turned in for the day to start grading? I have Geom classes in the a.m. and p.m. and my OCD doesn’t let me grade as they are turned in.
