Differentiation is who we are and how we teach. It is our lifestyle in the classroom.

This is the coolest product - it is a keyring with 100 small questions on it, sounds simply enough but who has the time to create their own one of these? I can just picture this set of questions on every teacher’s key ring, or ID lanyard. Have a quick minute and the students are restless - just whip out a question or two. So very cool!
The background on the product: Ok, so I am not a big “home party” person, but that is because are only so many fancy kitchen gadgets and candles that I need. I have stumbled across a new home party company, which has the neatest products - thinking games for children. These are the greatest items! The only problem was in order to get my hands on them, and hence share them with others, I had to be a consultant. So, I am now a consultant, but it is less about the parties and more about the products. These are games and ideas I have not seen anywhere else and they are only distributed by this company and its consultants. So - I had to share one of the three products I have gone through all this trouble just to be able to bring to conferences, and offer to parents and teachers alike (oh, and do parties if someone asks me too… at least I won’t damage anyone with my cooking skills!)

This would be a great product to include when designing menus. It does not have to be a person - it could be a concept, key vocabulary word or process. I really think this is an excellent idea shared by Mr. Martinez! I am going to start mentioning this idea in my staff development!
This is the template for the “What I Do” meme that’s been circulating around the internet for a while. I posted the teacher version a while ago. Today, I’m giving the template as a quiz for The Great Gatsby. Here are the instructions:
Using the “Teacher: What I Do” as a template, pick a character from Gatsby and create a “What I do” chart. Be sure that your captions are relevant to your character. Text evidence is required for explaining three of the panels. You may work in groups of two or three. Your final graphic must have at least one allusion.
Short little post here.
I have a few spots open in the reviewers’ list for my newest series: Differentiating Instruction with Menus in the Inclusive Classroom. I have created a video which compares this new series (the yellow books) with the current best-selling series (the white books).
Whenever new books come out (the yellow books have been out less than a month), my publisher asks me to put together a list of people who would like to review the newest books.
So, what does being a reviewer entail?
It was a wonderful surprise to come across this blog that my editor wrote! :) Very Nice blog!
Had a few people request information about the TeachersPayTeachers website where you can get free lessons, post your own creations for others (you can charge nothing or a little something - up to you.) This link is a referral link, in case you decide you are interested.
I didn’t even realize that @USCteacher put together a Thank a Teacher page each Thursday but I am honored to be included!
After many requests, I have finally created a menu just for The Hunger Games. This file has the menu, instructions and menu specific product guidelines. Enjoy!
A Quick Post! My publisher (Prufrock Press) has rolled out a new website design which allows reviews on each of their books. This week only, they are doing a drawing for a collection of their books. For EACH review that you write you get an entry into the drawing.
Please consider writing one or more (and passing this information onto others!!) Here is the link to my books, but please take a moment to review any of Prufrock’s titles. :)
