Is it time yet?

After working with new teachers this week, I am reminded of a key to success.  Time mangement!!  We live busy lives period and are pulled in many directions.  In education, it is so important that we use time wisely and focus on the needs of our students first.   Easier said than done, right?  

Working smart is wiser than simply working hard.  Be organized, plan ahead and stay away from distractions.  (Another easier said than done)   I believe a good rule to use when setting priorities is asking yourself what will most impact my students.   The rest will get completed and you can rest easy knowing you made decisions with the proper focus.  

Now off to use my time wisely...hanging with my sweet diva!
