Happy New Year! Bring on 2015!


The holidays are over, well almost. However, I am sure that many teachers have spent some time thinking about their plans for 2015 during the holidays. All those ideas we pop away to revisit "when we have time".

What will you do less of or throw out entirely?

So what do you have planned in 2015?
