The Cat's Diary
Day 983 of My Captivity
My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.
The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt todisgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet. Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates my capabilities. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a "good little hunter" I am.
There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of "allergies." I must learn what this means, and how to use it to my advantage.
Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow, but at the top of the stairs.
I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released, and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded. The bird must be an informant. I observe him communicate with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now ...

SMART START Your School
How long does the honeymoon last?
START WITH A
BOOM
The reality of the first week:
Who reads it?
So, how good can the “rules” be?
Common Nightmares?
Don’t just BUILD: TED and REFLECT
The reality of the first week:
Day 1, 2 and 3: Half of Class = school wide team building Half of Class = teaching the handbook
Smart Start FIRST 3 DAYS
Smart Start NEXT 2 DAYS
Day 4 and 5 Half of Class = Tech Boot Camp
Half of Class = Soft start and cool stuff that's coming
The case against random
To kids, this comes off as passive aggressive
Listen or be embarrassed
Listen or be wrong
The teacher is the center
Would popsicle sticks be effective in

AdditionHere is one way to show students how to add using Number Time:
First, choose a number and draw that amount in the “+” area.
In this example, teacher and students will count on from the “Draw Them” section to figure out that 5 + 3 = 8

The concept, in its most basic form, is self-quizzing. The way most people study is they go over a list of topics, and run through them once or twice. Maybe you make flashcards. And as soon as you've gotten them right at least once, you figure out
know them and move on.
But that's not knowledge. That's the illusion of mastery.
So how do you know if you really know something? By simulating testing conditions and forcing yourself to work harder to pull the information from
memory. Practically, that means closing the book or the laptop and going back through the concept and asking yourself questions to test understanding instead
of basic recall.
4-6 Reps?
