Doreen Lee replied to Renee's discussion The Leader in Me in the group Somers Point Teachers"We need to share the 7 habits with the entire staff - maybe in Feb. during our in-service day - then I think committees for each habit could be formed to come up with district ideas on how to implement.
I would like to talk to the Dawes staff…"
Doreen Lee replied to Renee's discussion The Leader in Me in the group Somers Point Teachers"I think that is a great way to embrace this concept. I use the word leadership when I talk to my safety patrol students - they must learn that it doesn';t mean I have power over someone - it means I am there to help and guide others:)"
Doreen Lee replied to Renee's discussion The Leader in Me in the group Somers Point Teachers"I really like the idea of having students create slogans (just like the recent one 7/8 grade did) and posting them around all three schools.
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is more a mindset than another thing to do. I went to a training on…"
Doreen Lee replied to Mario Montanero's discussion Cell Phones the future of the Internet in the group Somers Point Teachers"I love all the technology, I just worry that it makes the gap between the haves and the have nots bigger. It will be up to the schools to provide the technology devices to keep the playing field level."
Doreen Lee replied to Michelle Baltz's discussion Word Study Pilot Teachers in the group Somers Point Teachers"I love this program! I have been in rooms using it and see the students excited to learn their words. Teachers have reported that students went from 70 and below to 90 and above on text scores! My own daughter has trouble with spelling in 2nd grade.…"
Doreen Lee replied to Lisa Litz-Neavear's discussion Becoming the Great Teacher You Already Are in the group Somers Point Teachers"Lisa - thank you for sharing this article - I found it very motivating. I have always believed teaching is a unique profession because we don't always get to see the rewards. Most recently I did - When I went to physically theropy for my knee…"
Doreen Lee commented on Jennifer Luff's group Somers Point Teachers"How about No Teacher Left Behind!"
Doreen Lee replied to Susan Dugan's discussion What does your classroom enviornment tell others about your teaching beliefs? in the group Somers Point Teachers"This is a great area to reflect on. One more questions would be, How often do you change things? We all know that when you pass the same sign on the road day after day you eventually don't see it anymore - but when the sign changes you take…"
Doreen Lee replied to Jennifer Luff's discussion Reaching Students on Their Terms in the group Somers Point Teachers"ABSOLUTELY! During the many workshops I attended over the summer, the idea of sparking curiosity was seen by many experts as critical to making teaching successful. This is nothing new to teaching - we were all taught about anticipatory sets by…"
Doreen Lee replied to Jennifer Luff's discussion What every new teacher should know.... in the group Somers Point Teachers"I think another piece of sound advice is that the only bad questions is the one you don't ask."
Doreen Lee replied to Susan Dugan's discussion Rethinking Homework in the group Somers Point Teachers"Good Morning Everyone - During a workshop with Alan November the thought of making homework classwork and classwork homework was discussed. One 4th grade teacher state that she has been doing this for years with much success. The idea comes from the…"
Doreen Lee replied to Jennifer Luff's discussion Life Long Learning in the group Somers Point Teachers"Hello - I was also at this workshop and found it very interesting - Alan November shared many technical tips that I didn't know about. One that stands out is using site: when you search a topic and the country you would like the information to…"
Doreen Lee replied to Jennifer Luff's discussion The Dreaded Textbook in the group Somers Point Teachers"After reading the article I feel lucky we don't live in a state that dictates what book we have to use!

Doreen Lee replied to Jennifer Luff's discussion Change - Why is it a bad word in education? in the group Somers Point Teachers"I agree with Pat. We need time to reflect on what we do and what changes are good changes to be made. I think that is what many of us do over the summer months. I think one area we all must watch is our population of students. As they change the…"
Doreen Lee replied to Jennifer Luff's discussion Professional Development - Whose Responsibility is it? in the group Somers Point Teachers"I agree, but I also believe that it's more than just becoming more expert with every year of teaching. We owe it to our students to take the initiative to stay updated on the latest in technology, research and policies."
