First Day!

Welcome back! Students will be excited to see you. By the end of the day, they'll be dragging and so will you. Pace yourself through this week.  When your district asks for input this year, tell them THURSDAY is a much better starting day for the first week of school.  It will be exhausting for all of you. 

Plan for breaks, time outdoors, the most necessary routines, and getting to know your students.  Learn to pronounce their names correctly.  NEA offered this tip-when you mispronounce their name, THEY get a piece of candy. When YOU get it right, YOU get the candy. Names matter.  

YOU matter.  THAN YOU for being a teacher today!
