Hello all! I’m a veteran art teacher but looking for fresh ideas. How do you prefer to set up basic supplies in your elementary art room? Crayons, pencils, markers. I have 6 classes a day, almost 20% SPED in most classes, so has to be low or easy maintenance! I’ve done caddy’s, trays, etc. Photo just for extra context! Thanks!
hello! I am looking for a good therapist for a 12 y/o boy. No big life traumas - the main goal is just to help him be able to recognize and talk about his feelings. Communication right now is a struggle.
Not really looking for a religious counselor or therapist.
Thank you!!!
My stomach is on edge and now I’m paranoid. Have we had any cases of the diarrhea parasite? Sorry for the icky post.
Hello! We had some people from First Solar (I think, or maybe it was called Solar Up?) come to our door and really push getting solar panels. Claiming there is a state credit or something. There were like 6 people in the group. It seemed sketchy but my neighbor bought it, so maybe it’s real? Does anyone know? Thanks!
Hi! The title is basically my question. Can kids go in the hot springs in Thermopolis? Are there certain ones that are better for kids? I have an 11 and 9 year old. Thank you!
Hello! Lately I’ve been getting the most frustrated with adults in the art room. Most of the aides in my building (elementary) are great, but they are a few who I think sometimes hurt more than help.
One is a bit of a diva. I think she has a hard time not being the center of attention. maybe had ADHD, but I don’t know. She is constantly giving kids redirections, even when it’s not needed and is just disruptive. She‘ll complain loudly about them saying “67” but then go on and on about it, for example. She’ll interrupt to show me HER art on her phone. The thing is we get along and I don’t want to make it hostile, so I’m trying to figure out some ”quiet” things to do. Maybe give her a specific job or task? Like cutting out something for a class?
Any other ideas? thank you!
