JWilliams-UWStout This is a very popular topic and seems to pop up after each major tragedy involving school violence. The problem with this is that the media coverage impacts people, but that our culture is so over-saturated with the topic that we grow numb to it and it falls on deaf ears when it comes to implementing true and effective changes. We know the solutio...See More

Jan 3, 2013

Excerpt: On the outside looking in, the leaders of tomorrow have more tattoos, more piercings, play more violent video games, dress differently, and listen to music you and I don’t understand. This generation spends more time on Twitter and Facebook than it does interacting with family at dinner. It is because of this that many doubt our future. ...See More

by Booklady

Jan 9, 2013

I'm alone in our elem. library with classes that are 55 min. long. Most of our kids are low-income and a majority are bilingual.

4th grade has always been the most difficult for me and this class is larger (about 25) and the majority are boys. Today their focus was spitballs. While it didn't take long to figure out their game, I did not a...See More

How to limit interruptions while you work with small groups - By Rick Morris

AkomaTeach This is so cool. Great idea! Now, what do you about students talking while you're in a small group at the reading table? Granted, you're already given those still at their seats seatwork, but what annoys me is that you'll have students who will take advantage of the fact that you're not standing in front of the class looking over them to make sure ...See More

Devin M. - Stout I'm a big advocate of the stations and groups that work well together. As you get to know your students, you learn who gets along well together and doesn't distract one another. They can complete tasks together better and its a great way for them to work on their communication skills as well. STations allow you to get a bunch of small concepts goin...See More
