The most important tool in creating a positive classroom atmosphere is for the teacher to be a consistent role model. Being positive doesn't mean being happy all of the time. Rather, it means approaching every issue with a positive, constructive attitude. There are little ways to be positive, such as smiling in the morning when your students arrive. You should also be positive when difficult issues arise. For example, if a scary news story comes up in class, talk about things the students can do to help. Or discuss how it's okay to be sad and no one should be looked down upon for expressing their emotions in a healthy way. Your students will mimic the behavior that you display. If you react with anger when a student misbehaves, your students will think this is the right way to respond to frustration and they will do the same. On the other hand, if you display self-control in the face of frustration, your students will do the same. Important positive social skills include empathy, tolerance, patience, and effective communication. As an example of good communication and patience, if a student is disrupting the class, don't ignore the behavior and then suddenly lash out with anger. Instead, calmly ask the student to respect the class's time. If the student continues to be disruptive, tell them that you need to send them to the office and you'll be down later so the two of you can discuss the problem. You can also praise students when they display good social skills and point out their behavior as a model for the rest of the class. Integrate role models from the community into your classroom. The more role models from different walks of life your students see, the more they will feel that a good attitude can apply to any situation. Bring in a policewoman or fireman from the community and have them discuss how they approach the difficult aspects of their jobs with a positive attitude. Include ordinary people. Invite a sales clerk and a waitress to talk about how they deal with difficult customers and challenges of working in the customer service field.

Summary: Always be positive. Model good social skills. Use strong role models.

Apples, mangoes or oranges make good choices, but you can use any large round fruit that you have on hand. Leave about 3/4 of the fruit intact. Dig out the flesh, leaving a 1/2" (13 mm) of flesh attached to the sides. You can use a corkscrew, potato peeler or another sharp object. The hole should be the size of your index finger. (It is recommended to create a horizontal placing using toothpicks on the bottom of the fruit to prevent the tobacco from falling into the Hookah body). Leave about 2 millimeters of empty space at the top. Poke small holes throughout the foil that are evenly spaced. Light the coals and smoke the hookah. Because of the coolness of the fruit, you may have to use a few more coals than usual to get your smoke going.

Summary: Find a circular fruit. Cut off the top of the fruit. Poke a hole in the bottom. Sprinkle the shisha into the bowl. Cover the fruit with foil. Put the fruit bowl onto the stem.

Start house training the moment you bring the puppy home. After the journey, take pup out to your chosen toilet spot and let her sniff around. If she happens to pee or poop, give her a reward. Regularly take the pup to the toilet spot (every 20 minutes when possible) and when she happens to toilet give her lots of praise. Times when she is most likely to toilet are immediately after eating, and 20 minutes after eating. Pop her outside on both occasions and this increases your chances of her pooping in the toilet spot. This early stage is all about happy coincidences and rewarding them. Don't worry if she doesn't "get it" at first, but never ever punish her for going indoors. Punishing your dog for peeing or pooping in the house will only scare her and make it harder for her to learn. Consistency is the best way to train your dog. Remove the food between meals. Regular feedings will lead to regular times when your dog needs to eliminate. A consistent schedule is the best way to avoid accidents. Very young puppies should be taken out every hour, as well as shortly after meals and naps. All puppies should be taken out first thing in the morning, just before you go to bed, and before they are confined or left alone. A puppy can usually hold her pee for the same number of hours as her age in months during the day. Puppies can hold their pee longer at night. A 4 month old puppy should be able to make it through the night You don't want your puppy to get in the habit of eliminating in the house, so whenever she is not confined, watch her closely. Pacing, whining, circling, sniffing, and leaving the room are all signs that your puppy needs to pee or poop. Get her outside as quickly as possible. Use a crate or a small room with the door closed or blocked off by a baby gate. As your puppy grows, you can gradually increase the size of the area, eventually letting her use multiple rooms. Especially when first increasing the size of the space, it's a good idea to introduce your golden to the space just after she has eliminated outside. During house training, you should always go outside with your puppy. Take her to the same place each time, so the smells will encourage her to go. Rewards peeing or pooping outside with praise, treats, or play. You don't want to scare your puppy, and you definitely don't want to rub her face in the mess. Clap sharply in order to startle her; this will usually cause her to stop. Then quickly run with her outside, encouraging her to follow you. If your golden finishes peeing or pooping outside, give a reward. If she has nothing left, don't worry about it.

Summary: Know when to house train your golden retriever puppy. Be positive and consistent. Feed your puppy on a regular schedule. Take your puppy outside frequently on a regular schedule. Keep a close eye on your puppy to prevent accidents. Confine your golden retriever puppy when you can't watch her. Reward your puppy when she pees or poops outside. Stay calm if you catch your puppy in the middle of an accident.

Pull the leaves off the stalk, and be sure to leave the stems. This will make them easier to handle, and you can always trim the stems off at the end. Rinse the mint leaves in cool water and gently pat them dry with a paper towel. If you are planning on using these leaves to decorate a cake, choose ones that look nice. Don't use any bruised or torn leaves. You can do this using a fork or a small whisk. If you are worried about Salmonella, use pasteurized egg whites or dried egg whites instead. If you are going to use powdered egg whites, mix them with about 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) of water first. Make sure that both sides are evenly coated, or the sugar won't stick. If the mixture is too runny after you have brushed it on, wait 1 minute before proceeding. This will allow the egg white to solidify a little. You can do this simply by tossing them in a bowl of sugar, or holding them by the stems and sprinkling sugar over them. You can also spread them out, cover them with sugar, flip them over, and cover them with more sugar. Make sure that the leaves are not touching or overlapping, or they will stick together when they dry. Once the leaves are dry, you can store them in an airtight container or use them as a garnish. You can eat them as a treat, or use them to garnish drinks, pastries, cakes, or even ice cream.
Summary: Prepare the mint leaves. Beat the egg white in a small bowl until it turns frothy. Brush the egg white mixture onto the mint leaves as thinly as possible. Coat both sides of the mint leaves with sugar. Transfer the leaves onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Wait 24 hours for the leaves to dry, and don't cover the leaves while they are drying. Use the leaves.
