If I won the lottery it will be a true blessing. I would definetly prepare myself and family for this wonderful journey that we are about to experience together. It will probably seem like a dream in the beginning, but I am positive that I will awake from it when the check hit Wells Fargo.
But wait, what about my Towers students and the replacement teacher? My advice to my replacement teacher is to establish an environment in the very beginning that is conducive for learning. Also make sure you cover the rules and procedures as often as it warrants. Additionally, my advice to the replacement teacher is to make the learning environment fun and a place where students loves to come.
Finally, my advice to my replacement teacher is to continue to encourage students to do their personal best. When a teacher can relate well with student's the entire atmosphere changes and learning becomes engaging. Most importantly, I would tell my replacement teacher to tell all of my students that Mr. Atchison love all of them and continue to strive for excellence in all you do and I will see you soon!
I agree that winning to lottery would be a blessing that would change my life and the people around me as well. I think that your advise to your replacement was great. It is very important to encouraging students daily because you might be the only positive comment they get. I like the advise about laying ground rules and this goes for every student.
