ONLY THREE WEEKS!

There are only three weeks left of summer. What should I be doing to prepare? How can I fit into my schedule all of the things I didn't complete thus far?

- After the summer thinking, I'm sure you've decided what you need to
purchase for your classroom. Go shopping!

- Clean your classroom! Put things in order so you'll be ready for open
house. I love my read alouds in monthly baskets. I bring a new month
down and read all books before placing it back on the shelf.

- Enjoy these last three weeks. Spend time with family, friends, and
co-workers. You'll be very busy soon - take advantage of this time!

Whole Brain Teaching!

I discovered something new last week. Chris Biffle presented a one day workshop on Whole Brain Teaching. The information was riveting and I think will be wonderful for classroom managment and new teaching techniques. Check out the website at:

You can register as a user and get FREE downloads. The great part about this website is that everything is free. Now that is something to consider with the economy as it is. Check out this site and go out there and TEACH!
