Education & Reference - 8 September 2006

I live in Detroit where there is a teachers' strike going on. Do you think teachers are underpaid for what they do or do you think they're being selfish? (I won't state my own opinion as not to corrupt any answers)

Well.. just as i expected, i learned today that i'll be repeating this year(first year of high school) in school.

Probably, everyone in this situation would think what kind of failure are themselves. I, however, am not feeling sad at all. Why should i be?Why expect a better result when i wasn't a good student?No one can run away from reality.Instead, i am sort of hopeful because i think of this as an oppurtunity to correct my mistakes and fortunately graduate with a better score. Of course it has some disadventages, i'll be with 15 year olders for the rest of my school life, i'll lose a somewhat fine oppurtunity in the college test at the end of high school-which is a long story and is not necessary to be explained here-, but i guess it's in my hand to see these(and etc.) as adventages.
Do you think this is really losing 1 year in life?
No one can be sure what the future holds..Since everyone is different, maybe this is what will make me a better person.
Just say something useful.

Can anyone provide a list or guide for words that first graders are supposed to learn how to spell? I'm trying to create some lesson plans for first graders but I am not sure what sort of words should be on the spelling lists or how they should be organized. Are there any online resources that can provide this?

I am talking about John Holt, a writer of several books concerning Education.
The quote is :
"Since we can't know what knowledge will be most needed in the future, it is senseless to try to teach it in advance. Instead, we should try to turn out people who love learning so much and learn so well that they will be able to learn whatever needs to be learned." --- John Holt

What do you think about what he said?

Our son is 3years and 8months old and we have been told that he has sensory difficulties. He also has speech and language delay. We are currently waiting to have him assessed. We have been told that he will need to see an occupational therapist also to help him with his problems. Does anyone know anything that could help us understand a little more about sensory problems?

when it comes to school he gets very negetive, he always tells me that he is dumb,stupid, and ugly, he thinks very low of him self
he is not ugly and he is not dumb and stuid, he is very smart, i always let him know that he is a smart and good looking boy but he don't care what i have to say, i think it's because he is in middle school and kids usually don't take thier moms advice, what should i do to make him have a higher self esteem?he is always using the words i cant, and i dont know and i tell him all he has to do is try. i don't know what else to do. i feel bad for my baby.
