My daughter is 4 and learning to write. She consistantly writes her letters, words, and sometimes her senteneces backwards. Could she possibly have something wrong with her vision, or some type of thing like dyslexia? (It's not like dyslexia, though, because she doesn't transpose her letters or numbers.)

I am a recent Fine Arts grad who would love to be a pre-school teacher (teaching art and everything else).
I would like to know what the starting salaries are for both public and private schools in New York city if I had a Masters degree.
Is a masters degree even necessary? Should I just get a teaching certificate?

Sound it out. Go ahead. Nobody's looking. It's all long U, isn't it? It's written as two V's, which are really U anyway.

Ok, so I know that a lot of people are nervous of starting senior year of high school and graduating, but I'm absolutely mortified, is this normal? I feel like I have just started High school, not to mention I'm the youngest in my grade, I'm supposed to be a junior this year but I started early when I was in kindergarten, anyways, is this normal? everyone is talking about how they can't wait to get out of high school and how its going to be great but I'm not, I'm scared, I know I'm going to college (community first then transfering to a 4-year) but I'm still scared, I'll still be living with my parents for two years and maybe more if I get into a California University but I'm STILL scared, I feel like I have to all of a sudden grow up and I can't be a kid anymore, I've talked to my parents and they said not to worry and its normal and that I can stay at home as long as I want, but I guess the real problem is I'm afraid of being in the "real world" outside of my sheltered suburb life, any advice? sorry this is so long.

I read in an article in my local paper that the Federal government spends $14,000 per student on education. There were no sources to confirm this other than the subjects of the article - a US Senator and a US Representative. My research through the US Dept of Ed failed to locate any exact numbers, although there are more than 500 reports available.

If these amounts are remotely accurate, that means $280,000 for a class of 20 students; $420,000 for a class of 30 !!!!!

As an educator, I am wondering . . . Who has my share?

C'mon, 'fess up !!! You know who you are !!! Fork it over !!!

Seriously, how much is spent per student? How much comes from the Feds? Where does it go?

Personally, I think the politicians pulled the numbers out of their @sses to make teachers look bad (again).

Students now a days have no respect for anything and anyone, especially teachers. With the proper training, should teachers amd/or school officials be given the authority to paddle?
