Nod your head yes if this scenario sounds familiar: 8:00. Late bell rings in ten minutes. Drool is running down your chin. Your gut is churning from last night's questionable choices. Four miles away from school. Traffic is crazy. There is no WAY you're going to get to school on time, let alone have time to make copies.You check your reflection in the rear view mirror..... HOLY CRAP! It's like Rocky Horror Show gone a teaching! A little voice in your head reminds you, "You know you have nothing planned for today!" NOOOOOOOOOO! Whether alcohol induced or not, we have all been in that situation; it's ok to admit it. What to do when you have nothing to do? This book is divided into two sections that hopefully will help in any unplanned and/or desperate situation. These ideas work best in a language arts classroom 4th to 10th grade but are open enough that with a little adaptations, they can fit easily with any content curriculum. 1. Activities for those last 10 minutes that you didn't quite plan for.2. 30 minute lessons that help you in a crunch.3. One problem based, student-centered project Although every strategy research based this most practical source is teacher friendly in that you don't have to wade through a bunch of scholarly mish mash to get to what you really want to get to. The pages are black and white copy friendly and you'll note that most of the blacklines are half paged so you can save that ever precious paper. By the way, I would love to hear how you used this information so if you'll navigate back to my website and send pictures or stories, I'll feature your ideas on my site www.donovantutoring.com.Thanks for all you do. I am sure if you are reading this, you agree that teaching is the one profession that truly impacts the world. And if someone hasn't told you this lately...you are doing a great job.

When our expectations are met and things go according to plan, we feel a sense of accomplishment; we feel safe, in control, and on track. But when life does not live up to our expectations, we end up with an Expectation Hangover. This particular brand of disappointment is profoundly uncomfortable and can cost us valuable time and energy if not treated and leveraged effectively. Christine Hassler has broken down the complex and overwhelming experience of recovering from disappointment into a step-by-step treatment plan. This book reveals the formula for how to process Expectation Hangovers on the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual levels to immediately ease suffering. Instead of wallowing in regret, self-recrimination, or anger, we can see these experiences as catalysts for profound transformation and doorways that open to possibility. Often it is only when life throws us a curveball (or several) that we look in a different direction and make room for the kinds of unexpected things that lead more directly to a life we love. By the time you finish this book, you’ll understand why your Expectation Hangover happened and have your own treatment plan — a clear course of action to pursue your goals while preventing future disappointment.

Not only are they all too willing to provide every material comfort, they've also become overly involved in their children's lives, becoming meddlesome managers, rather than sympathetic advocates. In Drop the Worry Ball, authors Alex Russell and Tim Falconer offer a refreshing approach to raising well-adjusted children—who are also independent and unafraid to make mistakes. In this practical sensible book, parents will truly understand the dynamics between parents and their children, especially the tendency of children to recruit their parents to do too much for them. The book also counsels that failing—whether it's a test, a course, or a tryout for a team—is a natural part of growing up, and not a sign of parental incompetence. Shows how to resist the pressure to become over involved in your child's life How to retire as a gatekeeper or manager of your child's life, and become a genuine source of support Build trusting relationships with teachers, coaches, camp counselors, and other authority figures—so they can play an effective role in your child's life Understand problems such as ADHD, anxiety, and substance abuse A guidebook for parenting courageously and responsibly—allowing your kids to be who they are while building structures that keep them safe—Drop the Worry Ball is a must for any parent who wishes to be and do their very best.
