All of the answers that you have been given so far are good!!  I am an elementary teacher and one thing that I would ask is that you teach your child how to follow directions. You would be suprised how many children have a hard time listening and following simple directions.

I am still in school! What is that shit! Anyway, there are nice teachers who do their job well and try not to show favoritism, just as there are teachers who do not. High school teachers are generally not as open as Middle school teachers.

Teachers are there to help you - I asked my health teacher about a problem with one of my friends, and she pointed me in the right direction, so don't be scared to talk to them!\n\n**I mean my friend was having a personal problem - so I asked the teacher.... I wasn't talking like a cat fight with one of them, it was something different....

Usually in Asia, the students are a shy group and the teacher has no choice but to be the one doing all the talking in the class. But one good way to get them to open up and participate is play games. There are a lot of websites for these, and you do a check using www.google.com.\n\nOnce they feel comfortable talking (usually it's a few who will be the 'leader' type), get them into project work by groups and then doing presentation by each group on the project. G'luck!

www.proteacher.com has some great chat boards, lesson plan ideas, content ideas, strategies, etc.  Good site, I think all grades.

I would tell it like a story.  What did the teacher do at different times, what did the students do, talk about what the room looked like (were there behavior charts posted, rules, learning centers, etc), how did the teacher handle difficult students, what was their routine, what grade level and type of class was it.  Just make sure that everything is written clearly, use paragraphs and check spelling.  You are reporting on what you saw, so it can't be wrong!  Hope this helps!

I agree role play is a very effective way to teach...\n\nsome additional suggestions:\nHave each student play both sides of any "scene" and then open the discussion up to comments from the entire class.\n\nYou could have a list of things to be discussed and have the first student draw a topic... who ever "answers" can be the next to draw a topic.

It seems like a constant battle to keep my students from text-messaging each other in class.  Their concentration is on their message and on appearing to be working, not on actually working.  It's a battle I'd rather not be waging.

In what area are you providing support?  I'm assuming ESL?  From there, we need a little bit more information about their langauge level.  What benchmarks do you use to determine their level and according to those benchmarks where are the students?\n\nBefore you teach them, you might want to brush up on your own punctuation.  "Idea's" = "Idea is".  "Ones" = "several of the number one".  It concerns me that your own poor language skills might rub off on these young, impressionable students.\n\nYou can always find extra materials based around what they're doing in their other classes.  If they're studying plants in Science, get them to design a crosswork puzzle about plants, writing the clues themselves.  See if you can find some relevant newspaper articles about current events that interest/affect students.  My students from Eastern Europe are usually excellent at speaking and listening, but show poor writing skills.  Peer editing is great for this.  Give them a question or writing prompt and have them write for ten or fifteen minutes.  Then they can swap papers and correct one another's work.  After you can discuss the changes that they made and why.  If you're looking for worksheets (which should be a last resort) try some of the links below (which require registration).  Don't throw a grammar worksheet on them if their program of study is structured around themes.  It's too insulting.

Try this, but remember, teachers are getting smarter about plagerizing...if you copy it word-for-word, expect an F, but if you site the sources, this should help.

Maybe you could talk to the school. My school uses edline.net :)

I think this is a great thing to have for students.  Some kids have a difficult time discussing problems they might be experiencing a home, with a boy/girl relationship or just plain old peer pressure.  These councelors are trained in dealing with these subjects.

The purpose of  your class is unclear so it is difficult to offer good suggestions.  How about having them do projects related to the countries they might work in?  I'm not sure of the purpose of teaching them technical writing???  What do you mean by "a technical class"?  Or have them demonstrate each other's skill areas so that they have to stretch a little?\n\nI wish I could be of more help.

I've used this method not to cheat, just to have a conversation when i had a horribly strict teacher...\n\nWrite message\nStuff in pen lid\nPen falls to floor\nFriend picks up\nFriend reads\nFriend writes back\nRepeat for as long as you dare!

you can try e messenger, most probably it will work if your school admin is not that smart.\n\nhttp://www.e-messenger.net/
