It has been awhile since I blogged anything, but I think with this new adventure, I should write things down to amuse and benefit other educators and peoples.

Advertising for my products, projects and lesson plans
Speaking of my products and projects, I am developing what I call the "Ultimate Teacher Resource Book." I haven't found much commercial teacher resource books that include calenders, grade book spaces, and other various resources, so I decided to create my own. I spent an entire night searching teacherspayteachers.com for various formats of what I wanted to include in this book. I decided upon a grade book format and parent communication log with the rest of the contents my own creation. Both of those formats I adjusted and customized them to my specifications. For my color scheme, I love blue and green, so I made the colors bright blue and green with a specific font throughout. Here is the table of contents from my book.
Academic Calender
Year
Month
Week
Grade Book
Notes (for meetings and ideas)
Appendices
Lesson Plan Format
Parent Communication Log
I plan to have coil binding and easy access tabs. I also hope to have it 3 hole punched to allow it to be inserted into a binder that can hold class rosters, lesson plans, and parent communication logs. I want my classroom and desk to be organized, and I know other teachers have the same ideas. I want to also provide this book at a cheap rate because everybody knows that teachers are underpaid and undervalued. Also, I want this book to be customizable in areas such as grade book subject amounts and covers.
Right now, I don't have a finished project, but all it needs is to be binded and have covers and tabs.
So, who would be interested in this book? Leave your comments and concerns in the comments.
