Is 2 weeks of vaca looked down upon? Haven’t seen anyone on my team do that...

I would really appreciate some suggestions for roles that I should be applying for. I recently started my MBA though I'm still having trouble landing interviews and think I should be applying for different roles than I have been. My MBA concentration is global business, my BS was in management with a minor in professional writing. I've been working in cosmetics mainly on the customer service side, currently senior support for the CS team and have experience doing CS on social media.

Need 11♥️ for DM.
Please help

Is it possible to sell and transfer my bike to the buyer without physical RC? I have a copy from DigiLocker.

Background story: it was a newly purchased second hand bike, before receiving the RC COVID started and I returned to my hometown. So never received it and I’m sure the RTO is not going to handover me the RC easily.

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.

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.

What are some fun ideas for projects about describing setting? I was going to have them create travel brochures about the setting of a story of their choice but I think this might be overdone.

How many of you have a set curriculum and how many of you get to choose the literature/create your own content? Which do you prefer?

What are your students' favorite novels to study? I'm looking for modern/inclusive and not the typical classics.

Anyone familiar with the Read180 program? Curious what people think who’ve tried it.

What is THE BEST professional development you've ever been to? (Conference? District workshop? Etc.)

I’m a 7th grade ELA teacher in Texas!

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

I recently moved to a different district and am starting to plan ahead for next year. What novels and plays do you think are worthwhile and essential for 10th, 11th and Pre-AP? I have many in mind that I have used before but am really looking for some fresh ideas!

What are some projects you’ve had students do to show the influence of classical works in a genre?

Happy Friday!!!! How many of you have started using these one-pagers I hear all the Lit teachers talking about? Do you get thoughtful, quality work from Ss?

I’m a 6th grade ELA teacher. I am struggling with teaching writing. Any advice to give?

What era/genre would you say we're living in right now?

Anyone teaching an 11th Lit course with an EOC Test? How are you preparing students by reviewing for the writing section (Informational, Argumentative, Narrative)?

My district is thinking about purchasing HMH into Literature for our reading and writing curriculum. We currently use Lucy Calkins Reading and Writing Workshop and are not happy with it. Does anyone have experience with HMH? Pros? Cons? Any info is appreciated! Thank you!

How long have you been teaching? Also, what does self care look like for you?

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 you or the district using to challenge Gifted & Talented students in reading, L/A for RTI ? Vocabulary? Does your district use SORA in library?

Is there any writing prompts that stand out to you in the responses you get from students? Preferably ones that are outside the box, but I'd love to hear some tried and true traditional ones too!
