What's Going on At Teach-nology.com Teaching Tip: Sharing Student Writing When students share their writing, they begin to think of themselves as authors and it validates their thoughts. Ways that students can share their writing include: reading alound in class; submit their work to writing contests; make a big book; read at a school assembly; read to foster grandparents; dictate the writing onto a cassette tape or produce a video tape; design a poster; make a hardbound book and display it in the school library; contribute to a local newspaper; share in the form of a puppet show and through class anthologies. Writing can be shared with large audiences, small groups or one-on-one. Need more ideas?

Teacher Resources For Your Week Teaching Tip: Help Students Improve Their Study Skills Make sure to check out our Study Skill Center Looking to help your students really excel this semester? We all work hard, but often overlook the importance of study skills. Many students go all the way through their primary and secondary grades never actually taking the time to discover how they personally can best prepare for a test or exam. We took a quick poll around here and found that more than 65% of our staff members did not feel confident in their ability to prepare for exams until they were in college. We asked them why? The most common answer was that they failed to realize that studying actually was a skill. There you'll find quick ways you can help students work on their study skills: 1. Every time you meet with the student's parents and guardians discuss the child's study routines and suggest ways to improve them. 2. Help students discover what learning styles work best for their individual needs. 3. Share some basic test taking strategies with students. 4. Use Graphic Organizers to help solidify concepts. 5. Take approximately one hour of class time to help students learn how to study. If you currently don't take the time to work on study skills you should definitely consider it. Here is an example of how taking time with study skills can be a game changer. Tracy one of our staff members is a middle school teacher. At the beginning of the year she identified that 7 of her 34 students were struggling. This was based on many criteria. We then recommended that Tracy take a day to help students form a personalized study skills plan. Two months later, she can only identify one student as struggling.

Teacher Inspiration and Humor Inspiring Teacher Quote "Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants." John Gardner Jokes You Can Tell in Class While waiting at the veterinarian's office, I overheard two women chatting about their dogs. "What's your dog's name?" asked the first woman. "Well, we used to call her Pork Chop," answered the second lady. "But after the vet bills we've had for her, we now call her Filet Mignon."
