Information is currency here, so I try to share some weird fact or interesting story every day. https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307148669 2022-09-21 16:01:03 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307148669 TABE tutor Aztec and Essential Ed I like to do reading aloud and discuss how they got the answer to help other figure out what they are missing in the passage https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307149222 2022-09-21 16:01:22 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307149222 No immediate gratification - 85%ers, career criminals see no benefit https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307150217 2022-09-21 16:01:55 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307150217 The skill gaps seem insurmountable, requiring so much effort to bridge the chasm that it's not worth it. "I've been in Literacy three times before, and it's never made any difference." https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307152426 2022-09-21 16:03:06 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307152426 I use Reading Horizons, lots of print materials (New Readers Press Challenger series, True Tales survival stories), and group math lessons. https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307162294 2022-09-21 16:08:36 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307162294 Reading instruction to help those with low reading levels not ready to pass pre HISET explanation of application, synthesis, evaluation and analysis letting them practice skills individually https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307162803 2022-09-21 16:08:52 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307162803 Shout out to literacy teachers in general they don't get the satisfaction of awarding a diploma but going from elementary to middle school level functional reading is also life changing as is feeling confident at being able to write a letter on their own. Being able to do basic math to check their pay needed life skills so many were lacking. https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307172722 2022-09-21 16:14:34 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307172722 They don't want to put in the effort it takes to make it through. They want us to do the work for them or just tell them the answers. They don't even 'try.' https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307191343 2022-09-21 16:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307191343 Rosetta Stone is useful, especially if they have very basic language skills. Students can use it to learn either English or Spanish. It has 5 levels, I believe. Printing out grammar handouts to accompany the program can help them in the areas they need extra attention. https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307206731 2022-09-21 16:33:31 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307206731 Misty Brigance https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307332375 Our supervisor at JEHCC worked hard to get our college program going. She was able to purchase the equipment necessary for our inmates to attend class and feel like they are a part of the actual college courses. They don't just have to figure out how to do the required work. They can ask questions now of the instructor. Kudos to our boss!!!]]> 2022-09-21 17:45:44 UTC https://padlet.com/christinem74941/46h7juajkbyy7gpv/wish/2307332375
