Leaving the Paper Behind
I’m sick of paper. Sick of photocopying. I have 150+ students and that’s a lot of paper, especially when I change my plans so often that so much of it goes to waste.

Anonymous asked: I'd like to thank team teachers and ppt for putting the secret buddy system together. I just sent my buddy a gift, and I love the positive pay it forward vibe of the system. Thank you for all of the hard work and for making a great idea come to life. And if you haven't gotten the chance to send your buddy a gift, card or a message, do it!!!! :)

President's Day Weekend Challenge!
Pick at least 5 #education tumblrs. Go through their archive and choose at least 1 post from each that is an original post of theirs, excellent resource, or has great commentary (on a reblog or link). I think this would be a great way to discover some posts we’ve missed, especially for those newer to Tumblr.

pig-whale asked: I need help. Are there any AP Spanish teachers who could talk with me? I started teaching AP Spanish last year as a first year ever teacher with nothing left behind by the previous teacher, pretty much figuring it out as I went. I am still struggling and not satisfied with how the class is going, and I can tell the students aren't either. I need some expert advice! Thanks!
