Coming Out on TpT
I saw a teacher's recent post in the TeachersPayTeachers forums that was sharing her experience of teachers (and principals) at her school finding out that she bought and sold on www.teacherspayteachers.com. She was asking:
Q: How do you keep normal relationships with people on your campus when they learn you have a 2nd job selling teaching resources?
Our thoughts:
The best way I've found is to give give give. I give all my stuff away at my school. I create all kinds of stuff for what we're studying/teaching and hand it out like candy.
Some of them still end up buying some even though I tell them not to, that I'll give it to them.
But I'm of a mind to think that this is the best way always. Give give give. It might seem weird and counter-intuitive because it's your hard worked stuff, but it's the best heart to have. And when it really is your heart, people think you're genuine and one of them...because you are.
Our two cents.Your thoughts?

You can't read that! Banned Books Week Free Reading List
The contrarian in me loves this week in literature. Banned Books Week is the time of each year we celebrate the freedom to read. Society, it seems, is always trying to take away our rights to do something, including the choice to read whatever books we want. Banned Books Week celebrates the ideas in all of those books and how much we need difficult ideas to help us grow as humankind.
So I compiled this reading list for my classroom. I required my students to read one banned book during 2nd quarter and pass the Accelerated Reader (AR) quiz on it. The weird part of making this list was realizing I had to consciously leave certain books off, which in its own way felt like censorship. But alas...
So enjoy this list and your freedom to read! Download the list for free over here at our store at TeachersPayTeacher.com.
