What an interesting question and I am realizing as i read the answers, how much we all go through. i am sure many of us can relate to the 'looks' and 'comments' when we do a little more...ok, a lot more. lol! i have found that the 'other' teachers that do the same seem to gravitate to each other. i pretty much ignore the comments and do what is best for my kids. a few of you have mentioned the sheer number of students makes it difficult to do certain things. i can relate with over 170 last year. i like the idea of postcards or someone else once told me to call all of the parents the first week of school. neither one works for me because of all the changes and i just am so busy the first few weeks of school, i simply cannot find the time. i love the postcard idea though! thanks for sharing. :) keep the ideas coming! :) *\l/**\l/**\l/*Lynn*\l/**\l/**\l/* Doctorate Student, Florida Atlantic University
