MIDDLE SCHOOL 101 Blog
From time to time we feature a teacher blog that we think others will
enjoy reading as much as we have. It's especially cool when teachers
include details of their lessons and projects, as Megan Palevich does
in her blog "Middle School 101." She writes: "I've been teaching
middle school for 15 years and am inspired every day by the students
I teach. I am constantly seeking out meaningful and innovative ways
to teach students to be better people and life-long learners." While
her blog title might seem to suggest she has a novice audience in
mind, there are plenty of good ideas for upperclassmen too.

SUMMER REJUVENATION GUIDE

Edutopia's "summer rejuvenation guide" for educators is a fun and
potentially useful read. The "10 Tips to Help You Relax, Reflect, and
Recharge for the Coming School Year" emphasize activities and
resources available via the Internet. But you'll also find
suggestions for good summer reading and even some professional
get-away ideas (although most require advance planning. Start now for
Summer 2011?)

Love the Summer Rejuvenation guide! It has some really fresh and fun ideas. I'm already doing two of them (Try something new and crack the books), but there's a bunch that would be fun to do in future summers :)
Hi Lauren...thanks for the comments. See you soon!
