Its July and Im on vacation, and strangely I find it the best time to think about what I want to do in my class next year. Hoping all over pinterest and finding a 1000 and one great ideas, re doing my file cabinets and finding another 1000 and 1 more ideas of things, I have done before or want to do..... Surfing the net finding another 1000 plus one excellent sources, and yes more great ideas.
Now to go from great ideas and tons of them to figuring out what I want to do this coming year.

How to teach?????
theme based with chrono blended
I refused to be a slave to a time line!!!!!
concept based is the way to go if others would just get on board!!! I am sorry I have common assessment theory, not when you are dealing with others stuck in the past.
Classroom-
Waiting to see if the boards are moved the way I want. If so I basically have what I want in my head. Now to pull it out. Well I have a plan if the boards arent moved.
Organization- again the plan is in the head now to pull it out. Bought the teacher toolbox, actually two of them one for the podium and one for the cabinet.
Ridding myself of my desk, who needs it when you have a computer podium and a teacher one, both the shelves and storage areas.
The last two years I have had only student tables, six, but I am going to try and used 8 and spread them kiddies thinner. Removing the big unused desk, the second rolling cabinet (for cheer so it can go in that closet) I think I can still maximize my floor space, and not have needless clutter. One of my vices and biggest pet peeves,....
