Dallas, TX (PRWEB) September 10, 2005

Inspiring Teachers and Education World have teamed up to provide support and great tips articles by teachers for teachers. Starting August 2005, Inspiring Teacher co-founder Emma McDonald will be writing a monthly article for Education World’s website.

The very first article has been posted at: http://www.education-world.com

The article entitled, The First Day: Laying the Groundwork, is about preparing for the first hectic and nerve-racking day of school. Mrs. McDonald suggests that, “What you need is a vision of what you want your classroom to look like as a positive learning environment. Then you need to take that vision and use the first day of school to lay the groundwork for making it a reality.” Steps to do this are 1. Brainstorm Expectations 2. Lay the Groundwork.
