Hi Reader,

Basketball isn't the only "March Madness" for this time of year!

Keeping students engaged and working -- that's a challenge.

Here are a few lessons that will help!

⬇️⬇️⬇️

Spring Cleaning Vocab

Did you know that this is Spring Cleaning week?

Design a hoodie!

You'll love how engaged your students are! And the discussion and laughter that ensues!

Reset with a Time Audit

Help students evaluate how they use their time.

Too much grading?

Try this strategy to slim down your workload.

​

And, just in case no one has told you this recently, you are AMAZING and WONDERFUL because you are not letting March Madness slow you down!!

💖

With gratitude for all you do,

Marypat
