Helping Kids Get Organized!

January 13, 2015 by pathway2success 2 Comments

As a middle school teacher, organization is one of the biggest areas that I see kids struggle with on a daily basis. As adults, most of us have already established our own routines that work for us and help us be organized. It’s our job as teachers to help students find those strategies and routines. […]

New Years – A Perfect Time for Goal-Setting

December 31, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

With New Year’s Day upon us in just a few hours, I thought about how right now is a great time for teachers to help students write meaningful goals. So many adults make their New Years Resolutions and our students should too! What is important is that students learn how to set goals that are […]

Last Minute Holiday Classroom Ideas

December 22, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

Holiday Ideas for the Classroom

In my school, we are encouraged not to target any one specific holiday during this time of year so that no students are left out. Sometimes, this is challenging because many great lessons and activities are focused around Christmas. For the many teachers that have to teach in the next couple of days right before […]

Keeping Positive Communication with Parents

December 15, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

At this time of year, everything is so busy! Everything from planning for the holidays to planning lessons through December.  It’s so busy that I sometimes forget to do something critical to each child’s success in my classroom – keeping an open (and positive) line of communication with parents. One very simple way to solve […]

Close Reading: Getting the students to ask the questions

December 14, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

Close Reading

As teachers move towards a style of “close reading”, it is more and more important to get students involved in their own learning when they read. The goal is that students are independent readers who can think critically about a text. Getting the students themselves to ask questions is one way that allows them to […]

The Teacher-Student Connection

December 12, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

I would say that the most powerful item in my certified “bag of tricks” is simple: really connecting with the kids. Kids can totally see when an adult is being genuine and cares about them. They notice if you remember what sports they play, who their favorite band is, or how many siblings they have. […]

Getting Kids to Really Read

December 9, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

Getting Kids to Really Read

One observation I’ve made over the years is that the students who actually enjoy reading make the most significant gains with reading. And yes, I mean “really read”. That means reading something they like, not just because a teacher said to read it. I know this sounds SO obvious! However, it’s always a struggle getting […]

Surviving December-

December 7, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

Besides June, I would say that December is the most challenging month for my students. We have just had several days off due to Thanksgiving Break, and now the holiday break is just weeks away. While I am excited, the kids are just plain restless. It’s hard to get them back into the groove for […]

The Best Part of Teaching

December 7, 2014 by pathway2success Leave a Comment

I’ve heard so many teachers talk or write about their favorite part of teaching. For many, it is when the light bulb goes off for that one student who you know is struggling to understand a concept. For others, it is having students come back years later thanking them for the extra help. Those are […]

Pretty important reminder that the end of the year Pretty important reminder that the end of the year can be incredibly stressful for some kids. It can be really tough for them to say goodbye and sometimes the only way they know how to cope is to act out in challenging ways. Just important to consider this in tough times at the end of the year.
