    How do we put our heart into teaching, while having a life? How can we do the best we can for students without burning ourselves out? What are some things we need to know before we really begin to teach How do we get out of the rut that’s so easy to get into?

    While looking at “timing”, Ray will give you back at least one month worth of valuable time! When Ray examines your Implementation Dip, where will you see yourself? How can you move beyond it? If we don’t feel engaged, how can the students feel engaged?

    Whether you are in your first years of teaching, or in your last few years, Ray will help you examine your teaching practice by giving you some important ideas, big questions to ask, as well as tips and tricks. Why get stuck for years doing the same thing day-after-day-after-day-after-day?

    What happens when we use one novel for everyone in the class? Some students finish it in one night, while other students struggle with the first paragraph. Most Novel Study packages out there have some cool ideas, but lack effective and powerful assessment methods, embedded differentiated learning, or pedagogy that values and respects learning. Here’s your opportunity to use materials that were developed by a teacher for teachers. This digital package fits in beautifully with the Reading and Writing Performance Standards too!
