I am hoping you will find my teaching resources of value to use in your classrooms. I taught for 33 1/2 years. I was awarded both the NY State Elementary Social Studies Teacher and the National Council for Social Studies Elementary Social Studies Teacher of the Year(1988). I am the author of over 35 books for children and teachers.

What's on YOUR teacher desk?
" If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what,then, is an empty desk a sign?" Albert Einstein
If someone came and sat down at YOUR desk, what would be THREE things on your desk that they would notice?(other than papers that need marking and only one can be a photograph)
Although I have retired from teaching(after 32 1/2 years), many of items that were on my desk are now on my desk where I work at home.
* A marble paperweight that says-"A cluttered desk is a sign of genius"
* A photograph of me when I was in 6th grade(my students always got a chuckle looking at this one).
* Lots of inspirational and teaching items such as a wooden school house with the words," Teachers touch the Future".
Love to hear about your desk!
