Two of my favorite and very low students were in class today (HS seniors) and got into a little spat. K says: "Ms. S, he called me a Big Bird!"...
I just took it and I can't give you specific questions, but I can tell you to know your broad themes and know at least 2 things to do in any...
I just finished a very good one, and I believe it was quite helpful for the praxis--Kids in the Syndrome Mix of ADHD, LD, Asperger's, Tourette's,...
And don't let the gen ed teacher treat you like a TA.
I think the reason some paras can't sub is b/c they don't have the required number of college credits to legally sub. Like in MO, it's 60 college...

Thanks for all of your support. This has been very stressful for me and it leaves me thinking, "What next?" Another can of worms--mom is looking...
Actually I really love where I work--I'm sorry if I made it sound so terrible. The AP is brand new this year. It is a rough neighborhood, that's...
Yikes Sary, that is some major stress. HOpefully something good will come out of all this.
sigh. . . not out of the hot water yet, but I found out that they believed me. Apparently there has been a lot of kidding going back and forth...
