August 4, 2021 by StudentSavvy Leave a Comment

Ancient History Lessons

All teachers have heard the question: "Why do I even need to know this?" It’s fair to ask. The student is just demonstrating those critical thinking skills that we’re always raving about. But it’s a tough question to answer. Telling a student why they should learn something is rarely effective. But using engaging lesson plans can help them answer the question for themselves.

amazon summer outfits for teachers

If you have read my previous posts on teacher outfits, you already know I do most of my shopping on Amazon. With the 2-day shipping, it's too easy to get sucked into buying ALL the outfits.

It gets pretty hot in the Sacramento area, so I like feeling comfy and cool! Amazon has so many colorful, lightweight cardigans and kimono options so you can still stay covered in the sun. Whether you are teaching summer school or just appreciate cute (and affordable) clothes to wear around the house, this post is for you!  Affiliate Links Included Amazon … [Read more...]
