Q: Now that you have your educational roadmap, make a lesson plan which specifically lists how you will get them to each step in that road. Every skill that will need to be mastered in order to get them between those mini-goals will need to be planned and written down. When making your lesson plan, keep learning styles in mind. Every student learns differently and if you want your whole class to have equal opportunity for success, you will need to accommodate these. Plan to use sound, visuals, manipulatives, physical activity and the written materials along with your student centered lessons for facilitating, introducing, modeling, giving guided practice and periodic homework all for each subject, whenever possible. If you are in an environment where you can interrelate subject matters, such as science and math or English and history, do some of that. This will help students understand how information is applied and is more related to the situations they will encounter in the real world. Life is not broken up into class subjects, after all. Find ways that you can collaborate with other teachers to provide your students with engaging, integrative lessons.
A: Outline each course that you teach to achieve education goals; the school may require each teacher to have a course syllabus or similar document. Consider learning styles. Mix subject matter to build cross-curricular, multiple skills.

Q: Copic marker tips will not take on the colors of other Copic markers they touch, so feel free to mix and match any colors you like. It is okay if the colors dry a little before you start stamping. Just work until you are happy with the color composition of your stamp. This helps re-wet the colors, and will also help them adhere to paper or cardstock. Use a misting bottle to spray the alcohol onto the stamp. If a misting bottle is not available, dip a small bit of paper towel into the rubbing alcohol and dab it onto the stamp very lightly. Be careful not to smear or remove any colors. You can stamp the image approximately two times before needing to reapply the alcohol mist. To keep consistent coloring in each image, check the rubber stamp after each stamping to see if any colors need to be reapplied.
A: Apply different colors of Copic marker directly onto a rubber stamp. Spray rubbing alcohol lightly over the colored stamp. Stamp the colorful image onto paper or cardstock.

Q: Over a period of time, interval training increases how fast you can run by forcing you to use muscles at a higher capacity. Begin running at a steady pace. Increase your speed for a particular interval. You can use distance markers on a track or a timer if you're running through a neighborhood. Keep the increases short, at about 20 seconds or so. Once you are at your top speed, slow back down. Repeat as you're able, increasing the number per workout over time. Similar to strides, you increase your speed for short bursts. However, instead of doing it at regular intervals, you do it as you feel moved to do so. Also, you can add in other movements, such as jumping or bounding instead of running more quickly. To try fartlek, increase your speed as you feel like it while running. Go up to your top speed, and then decrease down again. Alternatively, switch to hopping or bouncing instead. Keep these bursts at less than a minute. Like strides, fartlek can increase your overall speed by stretching your capacity in short bursts. Going uphill helps keep you in proper running form. It forces you to pick your knees and feet up and makes you use your arms to help move yourself upward. Running uphill also builds your muscles, as you're fighting against gravity. Choose a road or hill with a slight incline. You should be able to go back downhill when you are in the recovery stage of your workout. Increase your speed in short bursts. Go faster for short periods, keeping it under a minute for each interval. Use the down slope for recovery. Once you've made it up the hill, gently jog down the hill for recovery. Hill intervals can increase speed, as they improve technique, increase strength, and push your capacity to make you go faster.
A: Use stride interval training. For variety, try fartlek. Increase intensity with hill intervals.

Q: Let your mother settle down, and give yourself time to think everything over. Get out of the house if you can, giving both of you the space you need to cool down. Spend time with friends or go for a walk to clear your head. If you are grounded and not allowed to leave home, try other methods to calm down, such as listening to music or talking to a close friend on the phone. Chances are, if you and your mom had a disagreement, you may have said some ugly things to her. Can you see aspects of the fight that were your fault? Did you break a rule? Say a curse word? Get bad grades in school? Or, are you upset with her because she won't give you permission to do something? Think about your role in the fight and try to identify at least three things you know you did wrong. This will help you to build a genuine apology for her later. Sometimes fights happen when we are in a bad mood, tired, or hungry. Were any of these conditions relevant in your case? Did you fly off the handle with your mom simply because you have a bad day at school? Now that you have a better understanding of the fight and what may have gone wrong, try to view it from your mom's perspective. Was she tired from coming in after work? Is she sick or not feeling well? Did you blindside her with an accusation or offensive statement when she was preoccupied? For years, counselors have used a strategy to help people identify when they need self-care and avoid any heated discussions or decision-making. The acronym is HALT and it stands for hungry, angry, lonely, and tired. Taking a good measure of your own and your mother's mood state in the future can prevent unnecessary disagreements. Oftentimes, teenagers and young adults may not understand their parents' train of thinking on certain decisions. The parents say "no" and that's all you hear. You don't see the underlying rationale for the decision. To help you better understand your mother's actions, imagine yourself in her shoes talking to your own child. How would you have reacted in a similar fight with your child? Would you have said "yes" or "no"? Would you have tolerated your back talk or snide comments? Would you have listened to a counterargument when your child's safety was in question? Thinking about parenting from this point-of-view will help you to develop greater empathy for your mom, and also give you some insight into her decisions.
A:
Take some time apart. Examine your role in the fight. Try to see things from her perspective. Envision a role reversal.
