It sure is frustrating when people who know little about the situation are directive and dismissive. This is what normally happens with “friends” “giving advice” on work/professional situations.

But what is a TEACHER to do, who has no time but wants to start doing assessments? I have the answer! Easy assessments for 18 months,…
Didn’t you love the STEM presentation last Saturday at AAEYC? I loved the personal stories — of being a little girl and working with Daddy. She asked who in the room had a volt meter — and lots of raised our hands. Wow! Because we worked with Daddy! Now, for those who have no daddies…
