Motivate Me Monday

Hi friends :)  I was thinking last week to use my five for Friday for pieces of motivation that I have come across as the school year has started... but in typical form I did not get to post for five for Friday (those little first grade germs got to me quick this year!)  Anyway, I was thrilled to see Motivate Me Monday over at First Grade Buddies so I thought I would link up!

I have two things.  At the beginning of this year, we watched this clip:
I also came across this on facebook this past week.  I know it has been circulating so you may have seen it already, but really puts things into perspective:

Happy Monday!  I hope to not neglect this blog this week - there are lots of fun things going on in my classroom I want to share!

  2. Hi Annie,

    I want to start by saying that your blog looks great! My name is Martin and I'm a teacher from Canada. I just started a new website called Resources4teaching where educators can buy and sell lessons and educational resources. We are new and are looking for people to join and put up their materials for sale on our website. We are having an iPad draw for the first 100 Vendors who join and upload at least 1 lesson /resource for sale on our website. There are absolutely no fees to join and you earn royalties of 70%. You can visit us at: http://www.resources4teaching.com
    I also created the Resources4teaching forums where educators can discuss education. Feel free to join us and start sharing your best practices and strategies.
    If you know any other teachers who might be interested in this Website, please forward this to them and if you have any questions, feel free to message me.

    Have a great day
