Can a Lack of Sleep Set Back Your Child's Cognitive Abilities? — New York Magazine
Please tell parents that even losing an hour of sleep will impair their children.
“The performance gap caused by an hour’s difference in sleep was bigger than the normal gap between a fourth-grader and a sixth-grader.

Suzie Nestico is our project manager for this semester's Flat Classroom project and is doing an incredible job. She is a history teacher and is doing work at her Pennsylvania school to align everything with common core.Here,you can see her transparency with her students about each aspect of the FlatClassroom project, what they are doing, and how those things are aligned with what they need to know. While she very humbly pointed out to me that her blog is just beginning and still a work in process with some things to iron out – it is a great example of how global collaboration, common core, and core courses can go hand in hand.
