Hi, I am a first grade teacher in the inner city and this is my second year. I learned many lessons the hard way last year and this year, have a very well managed, bright group of first graders. The problem is, when I cover other classes on prep (3rd - 7th), none of the strategies I have learned to use with younger children work with the older kids. Almost every time I have done it there has been either a fight, an argument, kids running from the room, abuse of materials, and certainly no instruction taking place - just crowd control. I don't have to cover preps much but I would like to eventually teach older kids in this school, so I really want to know: what kinds of management strategies, incentives/rewards, consequences, etc. work with older inner city kids. As background, assume minimal parental involvement/follow up and somewhat lax administrative back up (i.e. reluctance to suspend kids, threats and no follow through, etc). What can I do in the classroom to reach the kids?

Here we sneeze and then hear someone (even a stranger) say "bless you" or "god bless you" or "gesuntheit". Jerry Seinfeld started the 'you're sooo good lookin' sneeze-greeting.

What do people in other countries say to someone who sneezes?

I've heard some people say that. That to wait to get married, have children etc. go to college first. I have to say that I never wanted the "college" experience of a dorm and parties and all that crud, moving away from home, etc. Sorry but no! I had my child at 20, I was on my own and very mature.

Finished college 4 year degree at 31, and most people I went to school with were 40's average age was 45 on up. I'm sorry but I don't think people have to stick to some "conformed American plan" of graduating from highschool, go to college away from home in a dorm, get a job, get a house, get married, have kids at 40. Sorry, sorry. sorry!

Do you agree or disagree? Be nice! : )

I really don't understand it and I have a algebra test Monday so I need a website where I can learn it. Thank you in advance. I also have another question. Could I get the high school I attended in any kind of trouble for not teaching me algebra? I am in college now because I want to learn algebra so I am taking Fundamentals of algebra but since I wasn't taught it in high school I am having a little more trouble learning it than everyone else but I am trying.
