Stoichiometry? That was actually one of my better topics lol

I taught a lot of Algebra I. I tried to make it as relevant as possible by applying it to situations my students could relate to.

My problem with math is that the answers appear in my head from somewhere deep down in my subconscious, and I have no idea how to show the work.

My algebra teachers didn't like that.

Nothing wrong with intuitively getting an answer, but it's better to also be able to connect the answer you got to a process that will help you reach the correct answer consistently for more complex problems. If I can get you to recognize the process you followed rather than me teaching it to you, it sticks better because you created it yourself. (That's also the idea behind 'new math', but the concept was taken way too far, I believe.)

Who had the racoon traps?

I'm getting a new roof in a week or two, and I think there might be something that got up there.
I don't want to get things fixed, and a animal gets trapped, or wants to come back.
And I'm not sure I want to pay what Jedi said they cost.

I have one. I got it at Lowes.

My first test in Algebra 1 I got every answer correct and got an F because I had cheated. When I asked the teacher who near me in class got 100% he answered truthfully that no one had and said I could have gotten the correct answers from different people.

I hated school from the first time I had the **** beat out of me by a Nun in my repeat 1st grade until I quit HS to join the Army. The army gave me a GED test and I got a very high grade. I CLEPed out 30 credits before I was 19.

I score very high on tests but cannot stand sitting in a class after I have read the text and the teacher adds nothing to it.

I for one never had "THAT" teacher that people talk about. The closest thing I ever had is Mrs. Robinowitz, my HS Guidance Councillor, who, after a year of attempting to help me reach my potential, she told me that I would probably do better in a job than school.

Not long after that I dropped out,Joined the Army and had an exemplary eight years. I got out the day I got married and soon after got in construction. I spent 32 years as a carpenter and was considered one of the best in NWI, by many.

You just described what I should have done. Hats off on navigating the system

Well I guess I need to go to lowes

 

[KLB]

Well I guess I need to go to lowes

TSC would be another option.

 

[2A_Tom]

My question is how long will Lowe's make curbsidepickups of the raccoons and what do they dowiththem after they pick them up?

Also, will they do cats?

 

[melensdad]

Lowes is probably closer but Tractor Supply has them, they have 2 packs. They were pretty cheap at TCS, $29 for the 2 pack. Good enough quality to catch Jedi some furry little friends. It has a larger and a small trap.

How the heck is Jedi not up in this threads business right now?

 

[Ballstater98]

He has an ample supply of kin folk bandits.

 

[Ballstater98]

He does need a sqwallet if usmarine would start plinking.

It is squirrel season. Hoping to get out next month and do some hunting.

 

[larcat]

Any links or resources if I wanted to try to get into squirrel hunting?

Never hunted anything ever.
