Have a good night! I'm gonna go pet Duncan. I think he's under the table over there. Nope...maybe he's in the closet! Not there. Oh, here he is to the left of the couch! I think I'll scratch him on top of his head!
Let's use this blog as a place to get to know each other a little better! Feel free to ask questions or leave comments about the site. We'd also love to hear some of your favorite teaching tips! What better place to leave them than "The Tip Jar"!

Neeeeeaaarr.......Faaaaaaarrrrr!
One of our first grade objectives is to spend some time talking about "position words". That would be words like near, far, on top of, under, behind, next to, to the left, to the right, etc. I was telling the kids that I remember an old skit of Grover teaching the difference between near and far. I found it! Here is Grover at his best. Be at your best by recognizing when someone uses a position word around the house this week.
