"Thank you again for these awesome resources. I can already see ways to incorporate them into teaching. I love how simple these strategies are! They really don’t take a whole lot of extra planning time, which is helpful for teachers who are stressed and overloaded with paperwork/responsibilities/etc. Even though these are simple strategies, it does not take away from their effectiveness in the classroom. Thank you for all that you do to help make learning more engaging for students." Brooke , first year teacher
"This fall, I will be a first year teacher- yay! I would like to first extend a thank you to both of you for awesome online resources ! What a cool way to better yourself on your own time schedule!
