And it's Still a Messy Afternoon!

Good Afternoon All,

I have uploaded a resource this afternoon that I believe will prove to be most helpful as a reference tool for you and your students in your classroom. Please check this out!

Product Description: You are sure to enjoy this set of mini-posters to use with your students. As we all know, it is hugely important to continue to work with our students daily on refining their writing skills while also spending time writing for different audiences and purposes. To practice a lifelong skill, teach students the importance of annotating their work when reading and in turn they will better understand annotating when writing. This set of mini-posters all give students important hints and clues of how to read critically and write critically in annotating their work. This resource set includes six mini-posters all providing reference information for you to refer to when teaching annotating!

Executive Function Training Presentation!

Good Evening All,

I have uploaded a training presentation on an action plan in dealing with the challenges of executive function in children/students with ADHD. Check it out! Have an awesome weekend!

Product DescriptionOne hall mark of ADHD is trouble with executive function. ADHD kids aren’t the best planners, organizers, or self-regulators. This can get very frustrating very quickly. This training presentation presents ten, simple steps can be followed to boost all seven executive functions and also help your child/student gain more independence. This presentation might be used in a professional learning community for growth in the area of ADHD and executive function, a school-wide focused faculty meeting, or even a district-wide professional development session with general education as well as special services teachers. Executive function has received much attention and research and is worth the investigation in that many, many students have difficulty with this and many times adults think it is instinctive! This might also be a training session implemented with parents who will benefit from the ten simple steps as well!

Shapes Gone Wild!

Good Morning and Happy President's Day!

I am thoroughly enjoying the quietness of this awesome day... all I can hear are my two precious English Bulldogs, Jax and Belle, snoring! So, I decided to create something simple yet beautiful. Children sometimes do not see the relevance of things they are asked to learn particularly if all they see is the commercially drawn recreations... for example, children might ask, "Why must I learn these geometric concepts and shapes?" One only has to look at all of our natural beauty and life around us and the answer is evident. I tried to capture pics that children would enjoy and are full of color! I hope everyone can enjoy this President's Day!
