These websites will help us with our lesson plans. that one about the box is awesome too. and the one about the time magazine one. oh, yeah and the one with morgan freeman is good too.

Students are supposed to have an intermediate/upper int. level by now and I am not having much help in terms of what I should teach. They have not and it seems they will not give me any syllabus or bibliography...so I must do all the decisions as to what students will be reading....so any ideas are welcome...what do these kids like reading?

How do you determine when is the right time to refer a first grader for special education testing? Any suggestions?

I have been exploring the net all day and happened onto your site. I am a pre-service teacher in a field environment. This is my senoir class. I am faced with a dillemma and need a hand. The teacher I am woking with is tenured and not very optimistic about her future seeing the money/funding crunch we are in in Ohio. I want more for the students that I am touching in HER room everyday, I am committed to these Middle Schoolers from a low SEC but feel like my hands are tied. Any advice for the weary? I s there anything I can do?

I found this web site via NBC NIghtly News. It is a blog that posts letters from a soldier during WWI, 90 yrs later,to the day, that thay were written. Amazing site! It would make a great basis for a lesson on WW1, either for reading or history, and could be used at various grade levels. Check it out. Hope someone will use it. http://wwar1.blogspot.com

I work in a cross-cat. classroom. One class is jr. high age and the rest are senior high. The students change classes each period. I am wondering if anyone with students this age has any good ideas for incentive/behavior plans to encourage cooperation and cut down on problems. We have tried homework and snack passes and also each month I have a movie day for those without discipline issues. Any other great ideas - I need some variety!

This site is IMPRESSIVE. I coordinate the new teacher mentor program for our district. We are exploring the possibilities of setting up a site just like this. However, we have met with reluctance as some administrators are worried about quality-control.

What quality control measures have you put in place on this website? Do you have curriculum experts checking the lesson plans and tips regularly to be sure they are accurate, reflect best practices and reflect NC policy?

Teachers-do you worry about quality? What is it you like about having access to a site like this? What is it teachers really need to be able to best meet the needs of their students-a curriculum guide or access to supports like this? Have you had any negative experiences?

These are informal questions from a person who is really committed to offering the new teachers the best possible services. I look forward to your responses. Thanks!
