Getting a little behind...

Well, though I'm staying up in the classroom. I'm starting to get behind on keeping up. My classes have settled down and we made it through safety in my STEM classes. Pre-Algebra is going great! I love the Interactive Notebooks. I'm not going to do every lesson as a foldable, but the big things we are covering I feel need to be. 
I found a great Pinterest person named Debbie Dyer. She actually posted all of her notebooks onto the web. So I've been trying to follow along. I also got some ideas from some other of Pinterest. They have been really helpful. 
I'm hoping with doing this blog I will be helpful to others as well as myself for the coming years.

On top of things...

For the first time in seven years, I finally feel like I am on top of my game. It's only Day 4, but the difference structure makes in the lives of my students and myself is golden. I love having my plan period first hour, because it helps me get done what I didn't the day before. Also, it makes me on top of the day. 
I started Interactive Notebooks this year for my pre-algebra class and somewhat for my Gateway classes. I've used them in years past, but now I'm putting a different spin on them. There are some great blogs out there that have me on top of them. We got them setup today and ready to go tomorrow!
I will let you know how it goes. :)
