Wednesday's Featured Teacher and Freebie... Meet Heather Salsman

Meet Heather Salsman over at
Teaching Through Turbulence



What do you teach? And where? 
I teach Kindergarten Through 6th Grade Special Education for Emotional Disabilities and other kids with behaviors in Indiana - all elementary subjects and Social Skills.  I have some self-contained students, some pull-out for certain subjects, and others that I work with in general education for behavior.

What is one of your favorite memories in the classroom?
One of my most favorite memories has been watching my students grow in Social Skills over the past couple years with them.  When I started, I was not sure what I had gotten myself in to as they were physically fighting a lot.  Now, they consider each other family.  I was able to walk away at the end of this year and let them all figure out how to work though situations and plan things by themselves without any fighting!

What was your hardest experience while teaching? How did you overcome it.
My hardest experience has been being presented with new behaviors on a constant basis and having to overcome the physical and emotional stress that comes with it.  I have been very flexible and learned a lot throughout my teaching about dealing with different behaviors.  Blogging about ways to deal with different behaviors to help others with it and having a great support system of friends, family, and my blogging family has helped me overcome it all.

What advice would you give a new teacher or someone switching grade levels?
Look for ideas and then make them your own. There are so many teaching ideas out there that you can get from colleagues, teaching blogs, books, and more.  Find what you like and then make it work for you by adding in your own ideas and one spice to it.  Then, Be Flexible as you go along and make changes to meet your kids' needs.

Heather would like to offer all followers a 
Freebie!!

  4. Công tác cứu hộ bể bơi là điều mà các chủ đầu tư cần tính đến khi quyết định xây dựng thi công bể bơi. Do đặc thù môi trường nước là nơi dễ xảy ra trường hợp đuối nước, chuột rút,... các thiết bị cứu hộ và dụng cụ cứu hộ như sào nhôm cứu hộ, phao cứu hộ, dây thừng cứu hộ, tủ y tế dành cho bể bơi,... cần được chuẩn bị để phục vụ kịp thời công tác cứu hộ khi không may xảy ra tai nạn. Điều này giảm thiểu rủi ro và đảm bảo việc vận hành của bể bơi không bị gián đoạn lâu. Có nhiều loại kích thước của tủ cứu hộ, tiêu biểu là kích thước 1600 x 800 x 400mm, gồm 2 hoặc 3 khoang phân cách nhau bởi lớp kính dày chắc chắn, phần khung làm từ inox bao xung quanh các góc cạnh và cánh tủ có chốt chắc chắn cùng kí hiệu y tế. Chân tủ có bọc cao su giúp tủ có thể đứng vững chắc và đảm bảo độ bền. Ngoài ra, chất liệu gỗ và kính cũng được sử dụng trong thiết kế tủ y tế để đảm bảo độ bền và ít bám bụi.
