SMILES Mentoring Program: April 2010
http://smilesmentoring.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 26, 2010. SMILES Pioneers: Tutor/Mentors and Independent Mentors. SMILES is fortunate to have such a great group of individuals who are mentoring and tutoring students in an independent setting. In other words, they meet with their mentees in the school without other mentor matches and without a facilitator. We think of them as our pioneers, blazing trails for others to follow! MORE TUTORS, PLEASE! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Visual Guide to Web Libraries - Take a Look.

SMILES Mentoring Program: What was your dream job?
http://smilesmentoring.blogspot.com/2010/09/below-is-clip-from-latest-family-circle.html
Tuesday, September 21, 2010. What was your dream job? Below is a clip from the latest Family Circle magazine which talks about students' dream jobs. SMILES thought this was interesting, since mentors often “worry” about their mentee wanting to be an athlete or singer. It's FANTASTIC that our children have a goal and dreams. Mentors are here to support their dreams and also help our students come up with a few back-up plans! What was your dream job when you were growing up? End of Year Reflection.

Appelstein is an author, speaker and therapist who has been working with troubled kids for years. In his book, No Such thing As a Bad Kid. Really, a little humor, especially th...
