So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

How To Find The Best Teacher Resource

By Kerri Turner


There are a number of excellent teacher resource sites and stores available. They offer all the extra items that teachers need to use in their classroom on a daily basis, but many not be provided by the school. Every education professional in the early elementary grades knows the importance of stickers. Their students are motivated by earning a colorful or themed sticker, even one of the new specially scented stickers is an extra special treat.

Elementary level students require constant new material to keep them engaged. Many of these young children cannot sit still for long and need to have plenty of challenging but manageable work at all times. Teachers must be very creative and use all the available resources. Going on line to search the educational sites is the best way to find exactly what they need.

Handwriting skills are the focus of most kindergarten curriculum. Learning this important skill is the foundation for the rest of their school life. However, many young children struggle with learning to write their numbers and letters. This can quickly lead to frustration and in some cases bad behavior as the child tries to avoid the work. Having the right program for every one is crucial.

There are some excellent writing programs available. Going to the web site and learning all about them offers the educational professional the chance to adapt their room to meet all the needs. Some children require extra time to work on their fine motor skills and simple exercises are explained. In addition, there are fun activities and games that will help build the necessary muscles.

As the students progress through the grades there are so many really useful sites devoted to educational materials. Most classroom professionals enjoy giving their students some holiday themed work. Again, they can go on line and find an entire lesson plan complete with teacher guide and printable worksheets to keep their class not only entertained but learning.

Science is a subject that many students find challenging. Good teaches realize that their students may need extra motivation. Utilizing a comprehensive lesson plan with additional materials can really help to keep every student interested. Even having one bad experience with a subject can often cloud a students feelings. A really perceptive educator will spot that student and find specific resources on line to engage them.

Math and science are subjects that have for years inspired apprehension in many students. With good teaching methods this does not need to be the case. Constructing a lively lesson plan, using resources printed out from several different sites is the perfect way to combine all the best elements of those programs. Some programs are stronger in certain areas. For example, one program may give a great introduction, whilst another may offer great experiments, and yet another may have the most thoughtful questions on their worksheets.

Finding really good teacher resource sites is not difficult. There are many wonderful and easy to navigate sites and many offer free materials. Some children who are reluctant readers quickly find themselves becoming very engaged when allowed to work on a site at their own pace, that corrects them as they go. Being corrected by a computer is not as intimidating as being corrected by your teacher.
