Dear fellow teacher:

We appreciate your note regarding our efforts.

Feel free to use and share whatever resources from our website you may find useful to yourself or others.

Although we've been working on this project for several months, presently our 'SubstituteTools' website is a part time effort and all of our research and resources are free.

Most of our efforts have high graded many 'ideas' found at 'www.teachers.net/mentors/'. We highly recommend this site as a good mentoring resource to teachers. If you desire to high grade our efforts one step further and use them in your own class management programs, feel free to do so but we'd ask that you'd then delete our copyright notice. If you feel comfortable helping us to expand our efforts, we'd appreciate it if you'd note our website as a reference for any tools or techniques you might use or publish. Also we'd ask that you'd modify the puzzles found on this website if you'd ever republish them. This measure should limit any financial liabilities in the very remote chance of court action being taken by any future copyright holders to the puzzles we've published. We've plagiarized most every idea on this website without giving all the credit to any individuals or consultants, since we've recognized 1) the true originators of all these ideas are likely unknown to us and 2) the true genius behind most wisdom is through the efforts of our comforting encouraging Heavenly Father working through yielded servants. We will not debate with those who'd oppose our views and we'd always pray that these rare few would seek wisdom from above.

If any should ever have any comments, criticisms, or insights that could help our website become upgraded from being rough draft quality and more accepted to the teaching community, feel free to contact us and we'd likely incorporate your views into the future editions of our WebPages. Also, if you may come across any ideas that other teachers could use to help improve their time and classroom management skills, feel free to pass them forward.

We hope that our efforts will eventually encourage other educators and consultants to develop simple and straightforward class management philosophies, tools, and techniques that could be inculcated into individual classes, schools, and into entire districts.

Our best wishes to you in your future teaching career.

Kind regards,
John Smith

HigherWisdom -- James 3:17-18 NJB Whereas the wisdomm that comes down from above is essentially something pure; it is also peaceable, kindly and considerate; it is full of mercy and shows itself by doing good; nor is there any trace of partiality or hypocrisy in it. The peace sown by peacemakers brings a harvest of justice. (Matthew 5:9)
