Give a Cheer for the New School Year!


I love the beginning of a new school year!  It brings hope, opportunity, and excitement.  It is a time to make new plans from the reflections you made about your teaching and profession in the spring.  It's time to take what you know about best practices and summer professional development and put those plans into action. 

My new {school} year is really brand new and the first two days of school have already shown me that this is where I am supposed to be right now.  Over the first two days of school I was able to tour several of the schools in our district.  I met so many new people.  Everyone I talked to was excited about the new year and ready to take things head on.  New schedules were being made, new students were being assessed, and plans were coming together.  It is such an exciting time of year!  I am lucky this year to be able to work with teachers across my school district on instructional strategies for students with special needs.  I anticipate not only sharing what I know, but learning so much from the wonderful special educators in our district.  I cannot wait to share all of the great things happening!

I wanted to share some great quotes that I have found with all of you about the start of a new school year!
This one is for the new teachers:

This is for those of you needing a little inspiration for a new year:

This is for those of you needing to improve and start a new habit:

This is for all of you that make a difference everyday:

A sweet reminder about what a teacher is:
I challenge each of you reading this to find an area that you need to grow, change, or improve upon.  The beginning of the school is a great time to develop new habits and to grow as a professional.  Just think...at the end of the school year you are going to be so amazing a one thing (or maybe lots of things) because you started today!!

I hope you each have a blessed new school year!
