One Lovely Blog Award!

I have been awarded the One Lovely Blog Award! I am BEYOND excited and honored to have been awarded this by Ms. Whiteley at Toad-ally Exceptional Learners! Thank you Thank you Thank you!

The rules to this award are as follows: 

1. Follow the person who gave you the award (Check!)
2. Link back to the person who gave you the award (Check!)
3. Pass the award on to 15 bloggers (Check it out below!)

I love how these rules show appreciation, gratitude, and share the love, but I felt they were lacking something! I want to do more than thank and link back to Ms. Whiteley, so I decided to scour her blog and share with you my favorite post! 

So allow me to add a personal, Rule 4:

4. Highlight your favorite awarder’s blog post to share with others!
It wasn't easy, but here goes...

You MUST check out these Tips for working with and teaching students with Autism on her blog! Such a great reference, and such great reminders! This will be added to next year's tool belt for sure! 

I hope you enjoy checking out these Lovely 15 blogs as much as I do!
