Facts About February!
February,
the shortest month of the year at 28 days, is also the
only month whose length sometimes changes from one year
to the next. February may not see many strange natural
events, but it is a month when humans seem to be very
confused about times and people - and this has led to
it being the only month that changes length from year
to year, and the one with very odd holidays that are based
mostly on mistakes and confusion.
St. Valentine's Day, the holiday that people think of
as the holiday of love and romance, is actually associated
with love because of a centuries-old mistake, with people
confusing two different St. Valentines who are totally
different from each other, and celebrating the holiday
on the "wrong" day. |

February Teacher
Tip 
Daily Assignment Sheet
Every
day I write on the board the date and assignment, (written
assignments, lecture, or discussion, whatever we do for
the day.) Each class period is written with a different
color marker. I give the students a table chart where
there is a place for the date and assignment for the them
to fill in and keep in their notebooks. I also keep a
copy in my notebook. When the student gets out of my classroom
they can refer back to the sheet to complete homework.
When someone is absent we all have at our fingertips what
we did yesterday.
