Students should feel engaged and enjoy learning. Doing activities or games, and using pop culture or music, and having fun while teaching helps students to retain the information in their long term memory. DOING is key to learning! I believe in empowering students in their own education. I have always loved the quote, "Teachers who love teaching teach students to love learning," by Robert Meehan. I keep this in mind when I am designing resources. I want teachers to LOVE using my lessons and activities, because that love of learning is contagious!         My Featured Resources       PTE Classroom Poster Set: Periodic Table of Elements Vocabulary & Trends   Topographic Mapping: An Interactive Map Activity   By The Thoughtful Educator   By The Thoughtful Educator   Grades 7-11   Grades 6-9   View   View         10 Free Downloads       Edgar Allan Poe Crossword Puzzle   That was Then, This is Now FREE SAMPLE   By Fuller Teaching Resources   By Rike Neville   Grades 8-12   Not Grade Specific   View   View     Dividing Polynomials Powerpoint & Keynote Presentation   Quadratic Keywords Poster - parts of a parabola   By Esther Brunat   By Scaffolded Math and Science   Grades 10-12   Grades 8-11   View   View     Scientific Method Worksheet School Themed Hypothesis Variables   Moon Phases & Eclipse Digital Lesson | Distance Learning | Space Unit   By Flying Colors Science   By The Teacher Time Saver   Grades 5-8   Grades 4-10   View   View     Stem-Changing Verbs Mystery Images | Use with Google Apps | Distance Learning   Civil Rights Movement | Jigsaw worksheet | FREE! | U.S. History | 7-12   By Senorita Creativa   By Chalk Dust Diva --- History - Social Science   Grades 8-10   Grades 9-12   View   View     Thesis Writing Poster   Self Care for Teachers   By Teaching Made Easy123   By The Counseling Teacher Brandy   Grades 9-12   Not Grade Specific   View   View         www.TeachersPayTeachers.com 111 East 18th Street, 11th Floor, New York, NY 10003
