    Students will have their "Touching Safety" lesson this week, but do they really understand? It's situations such as this one that puts kids to the test.

    Carol, Sad to watch in some ways, but certainly the point is well taken. Must have been difficult for those moms to watch :( Unfortunately it has also created a generation of kids with social skills that are different from 20-30-40 years ago. Very interesting.

    Before students will care how much a teacher knows, they must know how much a teacher cares! What we say to students may influence them forever. Make sure to give them positive words and things to think about!

    I used this song in my Literature class the other day! It's super catchy, and the kids loved it. They asked to watch it again, and even sang along. This woman has a whole bunch of really excellent grammar songs to spice an everyday lesson.

STICKY NOTE BOOKMARKS - TeachersPayTeachers.com - 1 views

    I can't wait to use this resource! This bookmark allows students to organize their thoughts for discussion, and forces them to be conscious of their reading. They can come up with their own questions, or make them up based on the lesson. Not too bad for a dollar!

    This promotes a book, but it is a nice little article. It serves as a nice little reminder that we constantly have to adapt and make changes, and that that's okay. The book seems like a good summer read too!
