Getting a jump start on the year!  There are ways that we can set up a smooth-running classroom for the first day, week, month, and year! Using guiding principles from Harry Wong's book, The First Days of School: How to be an Effective Teacher, with modern insight.  We will also explore some ideas on how to set up systems not only within the classroom but also for how to keep you as the educator organized as well. Some ways can be done with the students, and other ways can be done before the students enter the classroom. Bring your own “System” ideas to share with the group, we all learn from one another. We will explore ideas on how to set up your classroom with some Feng shui ideas that will help create a warm, comfortable and inviting room that will make you happy to be in, even on those hard days!
