I have just published my first children's book, and using my talents as a Reading Specialist have developed interdisciplinary activities, as well as before, during, and after reading activities for the classroom. There are vocabulary activities and opportunities for your students to write to me about the book and its characters. I am glad to respond to those letters at your request. A physical disability permits me from teaching in the classroom anymore, so I am reaching out to students this way. The main goal of this book is also the part of my job I miss the most: instilling a love of reading and learning in each student. I can visit your classroom by Skype, if you wish, and our website is about to go online. There, you will be able to access the acitivities I spoke of earlier. The obok is called Harley Hits a Homer, and I am so pleased with the positive way it is being received in the classrooms where it is being used. I'd love to hear from you if you think we could work together on this project. I'd love to hear from your classes and to interact with them. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Let's keep them reading, Tena
I was hoping to get some opinions of any high school teachers here. I could have put the questions here, but it's too long.
Please e-mail me so I can send you my poll.
Thanks in advance. Jennifer

What do you do for RTI tier 2 and 3? Who do you use for Tier 2? And if you are implementing Tier 2 in your classroom; how and when?
I have a curious question about retirement benefits in Arkansas. In Missouri, we are required to contribute a certain percentage of our salary toward retirement. At retirement, we are penalized if we also draw Social Security benefits. This is very different from my previous state/district. Does Arkansas work this way as well?
Thanks!
