Lightbulb Teachers Corner ...

There is a new Social Group called the Teachers Corner. To find it, click on the Social Groups Link on the blue ribbon at the top of the page. When you click on the little red school house, you'll see a link to let you join the group. It really has little to do with our common interest in extreme weight loss. It has a lot to do with our other common interest in making this world a better place, one mind at a time.

There are a lot of us in education here. This social group is a place to share our common wisdom (? ) and experiences with each other. Some folks teach college, full time, adjunct or grad student. Some are in K-12 as teachers, teacher's assistants, volunteers, etc. (I'm sure that there are some techniques used in kindergarten, for instance, that might be of value for me in dealing with freshmen! ) There may even be some home schoolers here.

If you're a student yourself, you too are welcome. I was a non-traditional student too for most of my college years.

If you are involved in educating the young uns who will be running the world when we're drawing our pensions, drop in and join the group.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I can't figure out how to get to the social groups. I'm looking for a blue ribbon but I'm not seeing one. I would love to join. I'm not a teacher...as in as my profession. But I do have 10 kids (ages 7-16) so I thought there might be some good stuff in there for me!

Go to Community first, click on that, and a drop down menu will appear.

I am a retired high school Special Ed teacher and I also taught the At-risk program at my last school. I look forward to sharing with the rest of you
