The First Advisory

Our first advisory is almost here and I wanted to remind you where you can find ideas for lessons. This blog is a great place to find ideas and share them as well. If you would like to post and idea please let me know and I will give you access as a contributor.
In the library there are several books available.

Welcome back!

Welcome back!
Gina Cacioppo shared this with me and asked that I share it with all of you.
Just wanted to share a special on Bullying covered by dateline NBC. The special addressed not only the agressor and victim, but the bystanders and concept of peer pressure. I find this topic very important to the health and wellbeing of our students. I have attached links to a few clips of the show.

The topic of bullying is very close to my heart.
