Hi world! I’m trying to start a new ATF (Annual Teacher Fund) event. What is your advice for garage/driveway/getting rid of your stuff? I’m also looking for a food truck/delivery service for coffee/breakfast food that can benefit the ATF. I’m looking for the middle of September. Please let me know if you have advice or can help. This is my first time organizing an ATF event so please help!!

One student said what a “chill” teacher I am and another called me “fashionable.” I had a good day. Do you take to heart what your students say? Does that make you strive to do better? Do you compliment them on their efforts? How do you find time to make each student feel important when you have more than one class a day?

What do you do as an effective teacher within the first week of school? What are some of the introduction techniques you use with children experiencing anxiety, depression, fears, etc.?
