*250 or more words regarding school wide problems that you feel need to addressed. Identify way that we can fix, or make the pro
Nady [450]

It’s common for children to have some problems at school.

Some problems are minor – for example, missing out on school council or forgetting to bring the right sports uniform. You and your child can usually sort these ones out yourselves by talking and problem-solving together.

Some problems might be more complicated or long-lasting. For example, your child might be having ongoing difficulties in the playground with another child and the strategies you’ve suggested to your child haven’t worked. With these problems, you might need to talk with your child’s teacher to find solutions.

How to approach school problems with teachers

When you need to talk with teachers about problems, a calm and positive approach is likely to get a positive outcome for your child. Here’s what to do.

Pause to calm down

If something has just happened to upset your child, this can upset you too. Try to take some time to calm down before you do anything. This will help you avoid doing something you might regret later, like sending an angry email.

You could say, ‘I see you’re very upset about this, and I’m upset too. We need to calm down so we can think about what to do’. Saying this will help your child to learn this strategy too.

Be a positive role model

Even with a serious problem, you can model positive problem-solving for your child by being positive, thinking about solutions, and talking about working with the teacher. This is better than complaining or being aggressive.

You could say something like, ‘Let’s ask Mr Smith if he has any ideas about how we can sort out this problem’. This kind of approach shows your child that you value the teacher’s opinion.

Speak respectfully

No matter what you think, it’s important to speak positively and respectfully about your child’s teacher, the school and other children in front of your child. If you complain or criticise the teacher or other children and their families, your child will do the same.

Go through the right channels

This usually means talking directly to your child’s teacher to start with, rather than the principal. Going straight to the principal can make the problem bigger than it is.

It’s best to make an appointment with the teacher. This way you can discuss the issue privately and the teacher can give you their full attention.

Depending on the issue and your child’s age, it might be appropriate for your child to come to this meeting.

Avoid defensiveness

When there are problems, people sometimes feel defensive. For example, if either you or the teacher feels criticised, you could both end up feeling defensive.

Defensiveness can get in the way of problem-solving, so it’s good to try seeing the teacher’s perspective and to help the teacher see your perspective too. For example, ‘I can see it’s unrealistic to expect you to spend lunch time in the playground helping Ethan, but I’m worried because he’s lonely and has nobody to play with. How can we both help him with this?’

Problem-solving steps to use when meeting with teachers

If you decide you need to meet with your child’s teacher about a serious problem, the following steps can help you and the teacher work together to get a positive outcome.

1. Identify the problem

Be clear and specific about what the problem is – for example, what’s happening, how often, who’s involved and who’s affected. It can help to use a question. For example, the problem of ‘How can we help Brenna make some friends to play with?’ is easier to solve than ‘None of the children will play with Brenna’.

It’s also helpful to ask your child’s teacher about the problem. This way you’ll hear about the situation from another person’s point of view. For example, ‘Brenna is saying no-one wants to play with her. Does this sound right from what you’ve seen?’

2. Identify wants, needs and concerns

Allow everyone to identify their needs, wants and concerns. If you want your child’s teacher to appreciate your concerns, it’ll help if you show that you appreciate the teacher’s position.

Use sentences like ‘I understand…’, ‘I’m concerned about …’, ‘I need …’ and ‘I want …’. For example, ‘I understand that it’s a big class, but I’m concerned that Alistair is falling behind because he doesn’t understand the maths’.

3. Come up with possible solutions

Work with the teacher to come up with as many possible solutions to the problem as you can. Your child’s teacher has a lot of experience dealing with problems. The teacher also has strategies that have worked in the past.

It’s very important not to judge ideas at this point. This increases the chances of finding the right solution to your problem.

4. Evaluate the solutions

Once you and the teacher have listed as many ideas as possible, think about the advantages, disadvantages and consequences of each solution. If a solution has more disadvantages or negative consequences than advantages, cross it off your list. Keep doing this until only the best solutions remain.

Read the passage from The Odyssey - Penelope. Ruses serve my turn to draw the time out—first a close-grained web I had the happy
Nat2105 [25]

So every day I wove on the great loom, but every night by torchlight I unwove it; and so for three years I deceived the Akhaians.

 

<span>This line shows that Penelope is clever because at the beginning of the passage, Penelope requests that the suitors leave her alone and not ask her to marry until she finishes weaving a death shroud she had already started because if she were not allowed to finish, her efforts at beginning the shroud would have been in vain.  To this appeal to their emotions, the suitors agree.  And, knowing the suitors would respect her request, at the end of a day of weaving, she would undo all she had done in the daytime thereby keeping the suitors at bay for 3 years. </span>

What evidence can you offer to challenge Hutson’s thesis?
zvonat [6]

Answer:

1. This is an expository article. This can be seen through the author's attempt to provide evidence to readers based on scientific and confirmed analyzes, where he literally exposes the topic in question, explaining it impartially and informing the reader.

2. The central idea is to expose the certainty that some Puritans have that they still exist and are influential in America, being part of American society.

3. To justify this perception of the Puritans, Hudson shows how the Puritans justify that many cultural points and customs present in America today are based on Puritan habits.

4. To explain a specific idea about Puritans believing they are still influential today, Hutson shows that many ideas from influential Puritans like Martin Luther and John Calvin are currently being encouraged, to confirm this, he shows that research has already been done with students from two universities that prove that the concepts of these two men are still taken seriously within society. I do not fully agree with Hutson's view because the research he cites in the article only represents a very small part of the population, which is not enough to represent American society.
