Education & Reference - 13 February 2007

Hi all, I am a preschool teacher studying to make the move into elementary teaching. I am conducting a little research on the following questions (they are related):

How can I establish rules and authority in my classroom when I am not a commanding and authoritative person?

How can I make mutual respect and feelings of safety and community a motivator for good behavior?

How can I create an atmosphere of safety, comfort, and openness with my students?

Your anwers will be so appreciated. Let me know your credentials, also, if you don't mind sharing.

Thanks a lot!

My school is having a family fun night, and I am donating a basket that is to be raffled off. I want to do something creative. Popular themes are movie night, bath stuff, or a craft basket. I'd like to do something different and need some ideas. Ideas must be family friendly, but it can be tailored exclusively for adults or children.

For example:

The word "level".
If it's spelled in a reversed manner, it is still "level".

Unlike other words like "raise", the reversed spelling is "esiar".

Please answer, I really need it. (^^,)

I'm 19. I know I should have decided which college to attend by my senior year in high-school, but it's been a year since graduation and I finally have money and time.

I want to go to college in Southern California, but I don't know which one. I am going to be majoring in Psychology (counseling), so a school with a good psych program would be preferable. I like big cities, and would love to live in Los Angeles, or a city like it.

Also, does anyone know the general price of an education in a state college? The private college I was briefly enrolled in, then had to leave for financial reasons, was 22,000 dollars a year, tuition alone. A state college will be cheaper, right?

I know that in Russian it means "yes rum" and in Italian it means "from Rome", but the sign that the words come from is in Iran. So I was wondering maybe the words are Persian and not Russian or Italian.

I have to do a science project
"Brand X"
That means I have to test 3 different brands and see which one _____ (depends what I do it on)

I was thinking of testing 3 brands of soda to see which has the most carbon.
So, I am going to put mento's breath mints in them and see which one explodes the most. Then, I can determine which has the most carbon.
IS this a good idea?
Tell me if there is anything i need to know about this.
What is the explosion? Carbon, or Carbon Dioxide.
Please be honest. This is my grade here!
