Posted by Martina on 4/23/08
Ok, so I've tried a bunch of your ideas and some of them
worked, some didnt. I think that my students are used to what
I've been doing, and since I am a first year teacher it is
going to be difficult for them to change so late in the year.
I took a quick peek at the CHAMP site and it really is great.
I'm hoping to spend a lot of time on that site this summer to
adjust for next year. Is there anything else I should be doing this summer to
prepare for my second year? On 4/16/08, d.mac wrote:
