Quote of the Day

A teacher is a compass that activates the magnets of curiosity, knowledge, and wisdom in the pupils.   ~ Ever Garrison

Daily Stress Buster

"At the end of each day, make a To Do list for the following day.  You can use different colors to mark items in order of importance.  One color for MUST DO today, one for SHOULD DO today, and one for CAN DO if there is time. (Avoid red; it will only stress you out more).  You’ll get a sense of satisfaction from crossing items off the list, and you’ll force yourself to think about what really NEEDS to get done and what can wait for another day.  By holding yourself to a daily list, you will prevent the anxiety that would come with overwhelming weekly or monthly lists.  Take things one day and one project at a time.  You’ll be less stressed in no time."  ~Annie

Teaching Motto: You might be the only good thing that happens to them all day! Love them, even when it is difficult!

What are three things every teacher should own?

1. The patience of Job.
2. The voice of The Rock.
3. The compassion of St.Theresa.
(I read this somewhere, but it is so appropriate!)
