Stainless Steel - I swear by Weiman’s stainless steel wipes. One does my whole stove. Follow it as you go with a pause towel and it will literally shine!

Refusal
At that point, our director and the case manager (often the teacher) would go to the house to have parents sign the form.
I think it is always so weird for parents to refuse sped services. From...

Switching Duties

Coverage
I think I’m in the minority here, but I wouldn’t be expecting or asking to be “paid back.”
Covering someone’s duty is just that - covering. It’s not tit for tat. But when you need to be covered, you...

Our oldest resident at this time is going to be 18 this year. He has had a stroke or something at one point, they weren’t sure. So he walks a little crooked and sleeps a lot, but otherwise he seems...

I agree. They are disengaged and it is showing itself in bad habits and attitudes.

“Why don’t you just quit?”

I agree
However, I often suggest “looking for other options “ or say to “consider walking away at the end if the year.”
Teaching is currently a buyers market. They need teachers more that teachers need...

I’ve seen a ton of people use Taking Cara Babies with great results.
It’s a bit pricy, so if you do go for it, I’d jumped ahead to 4 month one first.
And I just want to add: a lot of people...

Yes, I agree. We had a vacancy post come out with 4 positions listed in one day. That’s pretty unusual for certified positions.

We’ve all done it!
Mine is not attached to the house, but I have left it open for a couple days running once. I live in a small and rural community so it wasn’t an issue.

Actually, I disagree. I understand and agree with the importance of service minutes; as an EL teacher, I am often in the same boat.

You can always call and ask.
My eye doctor was amazing and he was “slowing down” which meant combining practices so he could eventually hand off his patients to a partner.
