Last week you set the stage!  Our students are in for an AMAZING year!  The smiles each of you created say it all.  As the first full week of school dawns capitalize on the energy of a new beginning.  Think about the thinking you did this summer and the ideas you generated for your classroom.  Do not let comfort hold you back.  Every one of us has something we originally disliked until we actually tried it, and now we can’t imagine life without it.
