At this time of year it is easy for teachers to get in a rut. We experience burnout because of everything that is asked (or demanded) of us. It seems as if we are always having things added to our plate without ever having anything taken off. If you find yourself completely exhausted from constantly disciplining students and are ready to say "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" then I know you'll appreciate this eBook. The teaching strategies in this eBook will help you take back control of your class and enjoy teaching once again. It's even guaranteed! Take a look LEARNING FIRST is a program that provides teachers with the flexibility to design and implement their own learning experiences using their content.

Good Housekeeping's Site of the Day Newton's Castle was featured as Good Housekeeping Site of the Day on October 7, 2005. George Lucas Education Foundation Hi and thanks for your email. I have forwarded it on to the person who prepares our "resources and opportunities" section of the newsletter. Best, Roberta Furger Editor, Edutopia News Newton's Castle was featured in Edutopia on October 26, 2005. ====================================================== OPPORTUNITIES and RESOURCES ====================================================== 7. Newton's Castle Students can learn about Earth's rotation, optical illusions, logic puzzles, color, and more at this interactive Web site dedicated to the discoveries of Sir Isaac Newton. The site, which also offers thought-provoking questions for teachers or students to use to foster further discussion, was created by the students at John F. Kennedy High School, in the Bronx, in collaboration with kids at England's Thomas Hepburn School. Though the site content is geared toward middle schoolers and high schoolers, it offers plenty of interesting facts and puzzles for older minds, too.
