Praise for the first edition:

As a primary teacher for 33 years, I thought I had made all the time-management adjustments possibleuntil I read Time-Saving Tips for Teachers. Now I know you can teach an old dog new tricks about conferencing, planning, assessing students, filing, handling absences, and a whole lot more. No more Sunday Night Blues!

Praise for the first edition:

"This is a must-read for teachers who coach, serve on committees, have families, or do all of the above. New teachers will find that it makes that first year less overwhelming. The time spent to read this book will be recovered many times over. The reproducible pages are an invaluable resource."
