If there is a group of teachers that teach different subject bunch are grouped into a PLC, how can they help each other?
As a new instructor in CTE: Business, I began to consider ways to teach and reenforce many of the 21st century employability skills in the classroom. Some of them, like showing up on time, respecting colleagues and management, and critical thinking are some that are already expected within the school. Show up to class on time and ready to learn, respect your peers and teachers, etc. One that I feel would be more difficult, especially in the secondary school environment is dressing appropriately. In the business setting there is professional dress, business casual, and just plain casual. Most students may come to school each day in casual dress, but is it unlikely that students will come to class in professinal or business casual attire. I believe that workplace attire is extremely important when it comes to employability.
For myself I plan on modeling the expectation by coming to teach wearing professional business or business casual attire every day
Knowing that kids want to keep it casual at school, I'm thinking that the required "classroom attire" be a small part of their grade or even extra credit.
I'm interested in knowing what other CTE instructors think about this.
After getting that question wrong, I know that some social media is allowed

I believe differentiation of instruction is critical to maximize the comprehension/learning of students. One emphasis of this past lesson stresses the importance accomadating the different modalities of individual students; however, I find students need to identify weaknesses and work on improving them as well.
allows for them to build better communication skills needed to work efficiently and productively.
builds confidence in meeting strangers.
gives them inspiring peer group pressure to perform better.
giving them opportunities to work alone for some students can be just as effective.

I have a student how has had out of school suspension for fighting three times within 16 days, for fighting. I feel that sending this student home is clearly not solving anything. So far the Trauma Educational Awareness course has stated "when a bullying episode occurs, mental health services become urgent. Trauma is obviously in plain sight." What are other, more appropriate ways the school can be responding to this child?
