I have a meeting for parents at James Moran Middle School in Wallingford, CT during the first week of school. It introduces them to a class that is very different from most others ;) This is a video that I am going to show them. I still have plenty of time to edit, so if you notice something...please let me know ;)
Some teachers asked if they could show this video to their parents/staff. So I took the video and cut off the second half with the student quotes and changed the words in the first half to make it fit parents or staff. It can be found at:

Let me know if I made a mistake ;)
The great song in the second half of this video was written by written by Brian Asselin and Eric Disero.
"Teacher Appreciation Song: A Song for Teachers - You Have Made A Difference" can be found here:

Great Video! It's very encouraging to see other professionals taking TEACHING seriously! and this is just a simple way how to strengthen the home-school link! Thumbs UP!
