A Few of My Favorite Things!
April's Friday 5!
This week for Friday 5!
When the dog bites, when the bee stings........
Okay, so to get ready for a much needed break, I wanted to share a few of my favorite work things. Some of these have been mentioned before, but they are things I cannot live without at work!!
Pinterest is not just for girls!!! It's also not just for the crafty DIYers. The education ideas and resources are endless! Follow me on Pinterest and check out my board "Education Ideas".
The First Days of School
It's an oldie but a goodie! My copy is so worn out. If you haven't read it, you need to. If you have read it, glance through it for ideas that you may have forgotten about. It is the single best classroom management resource on the planet (in my opinion, but it's a pretty good opinion!).
Flatland
I taught this novel to my Geometry students. I applied and received a teacher grant from the PTSA and bought a class set. For me it represents a great way to bridge the gap between Literacy and Mathematics.
My Phone
Yes I love all of my devices, but my phone has become a very important part of my daily work life. If you see me on my phone, I am either using the calculator to work on data, looking up information on my phone while working on something on my laptop, calling tech services or other district departments I may need, taking pics of things I may need to reference at a later date, etc. Really think about the possibilities of using all of your devices at your disposal to help with the management of things.
