  1. Teresa TerryTime To Teach!

  2. Time, it has been said, is the coin of learning.Yet every teacher has known the frustration of losing valuable instructional time to matters of discipline, just as every student has known the frustration of losing valuable learning time to matters of discipline. For some teachers and for some students, the amount of time lost is very great. The strategies taught in this seminar have proven to restore that lost time to teachers and students in a way that is simple, fair, and mutually respectful. We believe that it can be effective for you in your unique situation. We will explain it to you as clearly as we can, in the hopes that it will help you expand your "time to teach."
