As a mother and a teacher, this time of year is pretty crazy to say the least. Now that we’re a week or so in, I am sure most parents and teachers alike have settled in a little bit, but it still might take a bit more time. Since my blog is primarily focused on teaching in the Ottawa area, I wanted to share links to a couple of resources that I came across recently.

The first is the back to school section on the Ottawa Sun website. They recently posted a bunch of articles about getting prepared for school which are especially helpful for those parents in Ottawa who’s little toddlers are making their way into Kindergarden.

And secondly, the Ottawa police posted a neat information page that has some great tips on school and school bus safety as well as other topics such as bullying.

At any rate, I hope you’re September is off to a good start and that you are able to get into a good routine as soon as possible.
