New Year - New Blog

The 2013-2014 School year is around the corner and I've decided to make it the best one yet! I want to use this blog as my teaching diary. I want to reflect on my own teaching practices and keep track of all the things I do with/for my students. I want to share the successes and challenges I'll face with my bilingual class...and the funny stories too ;) .

This year is going to be a bit difficult because we are fully implementing Common Core, we are getting new reading/math series, and we are going to use the VAM evaluation system...ahhhh!!! yet, I am still planning on enjoying this year! :)

I still have a bit of summer left and I am planning on enjoying every single day, so I might not post things until school starts! Teachers have a life, too..right?  I hope you will consider following me and hopefully we'll be able to help, motivate, and support each other! :)

Best regards,
Maria

PS- Here is a picture of a new product I just created for my TPT store. I used something similar last year and it was a great/easy way to let people at our school know where we were. Enjoy! :)
