Less Than Seven Days

It's getting close!  Less than seven days before I start this insane project of one post a day. Not sure where this will go, but I am committed to this.  I am still wrestling with whether or not I will post every day or just record every day and post once a week. Time will tell.  I predict I will start posting every day and with in a month or so I will discover that recording every day and posting once a week will be easier.

Check out the current videos.

Things That Work

Today I had the privilege of attending CHAMPs classroom management system sessions.  There are so many things I can use and will share with you as the year moves on.  Search up CHAMPs on line see what you can find.  It's worth a look.

Either way, this is going to be one crazy ride.


Remember, I enjoy learning with you, teaching with you and together we can take over the world.

The Class Size Debate Is WRONG

There’s a huge controversy boiling across The teaching and education landscape right now. Some people are saying Betsy DeVos has rekindled the flame of "Larger Class Sizes and Fewer Teachers." Others are saying That it flies in the face of common sense. Smaller classes and more teachers is the way to go. But you know what?  This is not a new debate!   "While DeVos is under siege for her comment, she’s not the first secretary of education to suggest schools might be wiser to invest in stronger teachers rather than smaller classes. Arne Duncan, secretary of education for most of Obama’s tenure, argued, “We spent billions of dollars to reduce class size when we could instead give teachers higher salaries in exchange for larger classrooms, thereby attracting much more talented teachers.”  https://www.ajc.com/blog/get-schooled/betsy-devos-reignites-debate-whether-class-size-matters/VDHjWAD0HvkusJ666SJNxM/ They’re all wrong.

Subscribe, Watch and Comment

I am banking information videos so that I will be able to release one a week along with the daily Vlog entries I plan on doing.  This morning I videoed 15 new segments, including four parts of a new series focused on strategic goofing around with your students, "How to Be Cooler Than Your Students." Each installment will offer something you can do to deliberately make yourself more accessible to the students' minds and help them see you as the human being you are. I am gearing up for a busy year and I want to continue to bring quality information to you and other teachers.  Keep watching and commenting, please. The more viewers make comments, subscribe to the channel and watch entire videos the more easily the channel and videos will be found in search engines by other teachers.  Your participation helps others. Check out the current videos. Things That Work Enjoy the last few days of summer, and if you are already back at work, enjoy your year. ...

Long Time No Post

Well something had to give.  It was the blog. I'm back, but with no promises except one.  I will post good stuff here when I post.  With that being said. Here is a preview of topics to come in future videos about connecting students with the community in a meaningful way.   This is taken from a group of essays I wrote last year.  I hope you find it useful.  As teachers it is our job to ensure that education transcends the classroom. There are as many ways to connect students and the community as there are teachers to teach them. When done successfully the impact on students is powerful. In addition to, and through a subject's content Teachers should encourage and equip students to be their own educational advocate by being aware of and able to successfully navigate the educational landscape leading to their success.  Students who attend any class should learn the roles, function and purpose of administrators and counselors....
