Someone emailed me a question that I myself have been pondering:

“I was curious to know how you organize your teacher resources and reproducibles. I have a huge file cabinet that is full of files and I have been considering putting it all in to subject binders. Is this a big waste of time? Any ideas?”

Tell BTC how your organize your resources and printables!  Post your comments on the blog and the best responses will be featured in next month’s newsletter!

If your response is chosen, you will receive a free product from BTC - the Literacy File Folder Game!  Make sure you provide your email address (it will be kept private!).

One of the many buzz words in education these past few years has been Differentiated Instruction. Teachers are now expected to differentiate their instruction to meet the needs of diverse learners. This can be done in various ways, including small group instruction and one-to-one instruction.

I’ve added a new page to the recommended books section on differentiated instruction. It can be found here:
