The trusted resource for thousands of teachers nationwide
The challenge for K-8 teachers, librarians, and other educators is to find a way to capture students' attention so they will be excited by learning, not dreading the monotony of time-weathered instruction. The Teacher's Calendar is the panacea for stale lesson plans, offering innovative classroom ideas for every day of the year, from August 1 to July 31. Each page is packed with suggestions for class activities, bulletin boards, and school calendars. Sidebars highlight specific dates and provide curriculum ideas, lists of appropriate books, and related websites.

I get every day!" --Jane Ann Robertson, 2004 Arizona Teacher of the Year
