Question:
Here’s the question:
“If you had unlimited resources, what would you do to make the world a better place, especially as it would benefit you personally? Remember money and manpower are no obstacle?”
I was thinking maybe donating money to school for one thing cuz i hate it when they take away cool field trips cuz they can’t pay for it. but i can’t see how i’d write 4 paragraphs with that. i have no idea of how to make the world a better place AND have it benefit me personally. i was gonna do something about world hunger but that doesn’t benefit me. if it helps: i like music, poetry (‘n writing poetry/lyrics), playing the violin, playing the bass, finding new bands on the internet, family guy, south park, comedy. Should i donate to one of those things? like maybe donate to new instruments to school or give them money to add on to the school/hire teachers, so they can add new, cooler classes. Donate an ipod to every one? lol computers for the school? help!
Caine P and Socolboy both gave awesome answers! i’d mark both as best answers but idk if u can do tht. i think i’m gonna write about both, if i can. if i cant, i mite write about the health care one, cuz then maybe i can donate to scientists who study the cure for cancer. plus everybody need health care. not everybody needs new classes, field trips,and brand new instruments to survive. thanx to the ppl tht answered!

Also (maybe separate question), the principal hired me over objections of spec coord, who did not like my priv school exp. Any tips for gaining her trust/confidence when I am fairly new to PS teaching?
Thanks for all real replies.

Question:
Hi, I’m a 6th grade Literature teacher at a new school. The school has old 2001 Prentice Hall Copper Level Texas Editions. I have the Teacher’s Edition but not any of the other resource materials. I am trying to find the “Celebrating Texas Literature” Unit Test online without any luck. Does anyone know where online I can find this test or have this test they can email to me? Please let me know ASAP! Thanks!

Question:
I plan on teaching grade 6. I am majoring in geography. Originally, I chose French as my minor, but am finding I don’t really like it. I plan on changing to a history minor, but am also VERY interested in psychology. If you were the hiring director for a school, would you hire someone to teach grade 6, who had psychology as their minor?
Question:
The Subject I am going to teach has no syllabus, no curriculum, it is a 2 year old program in school, the former teacher used no books had no sources to rely on and I am given the freedom to find anything I want to use. I would appreciate any tips on books, workbooks, printed materials, on-line resources I could check out and /or use to prepare for this challenge. The only thing I was told is that I am supposed to review key skills the students were supposed to acquire in their Elementary years. It is a little “broad” of a subject I would say, but any idea or tip can be a start. Thanks to all for your help!
What writing projects have you done in that past that were fun for that grad level? thanks.
