SOL 3/18 Oh, Monday...

  18 of 31 for the Slice of Life Challenge from Two Writing Teachers
This 6 word slice sums up how I feel every Monday.  Grades are due at three (and are done, just need to submit)...field trip with my daughter tomorrow to the literature festival, so sub plans to write.  Better get going to start another week.  Where is the coffee?

Monday, you are one evil mistress.

    My Tuesdays are your Mondays. More coffee, more planning, and then it's over. Where does the week go?

SOL 3/31 I Made It!

Wow!  I made it. Thirty-one days of writing on this little blog.  I am so proud of myself for finishing the Slice of Life challenge, hosted by Ruth and Stacey at Two Writing Teachers.  I don't think that I could have imagined that I would finish a month of blogging. A month of writing.  I have truly enjoyed this challenge.  I remember why I love writing.  I have been able to try new styles of writing.  I have also been able to read some really powerful posts from some really terrific writers.  I have learned more about the subject that I teach.  I have come across great ideas for my classroom.  I have laughed and cried with others from around the world.  Thirty-one days may be a short blip in time, but thirty-one days has helped me to become a stronger writer.  Thank you to all the people who have read and commented.  That has meant a great deal to me.  I have grown to love the community of writers who support and encourage one another. Thank you, Ruth and Stacey, for challenging

SOL 3/16 Plugging Away

16 of 31 for the Slice of Life Challenge from Two Writing Teachers Today is my 41st post for this blog.  When I started this a few years ago, I don't think I could have imagined where I am now.  Teaching again, Trying to get fit.  Juggling three teen/preteens and work and just life in general.  I know I couldn't have imagined that I would join a writing challenge that asked me to write everyday for a month.  I am sure that that Sarah would have just laughed, and said "Yeah, right!"  But here I am, on my 16th day of blogging consistently, writing my 41st post.  While I'm sure this achievement is a drop in the bucket for some, I am choosing to see this as a good starting point.  A place that I realized that I can write, even if my audience is pretty tiny.  I am making a start, and that is a pretty cool thing.

SOL 3/9 Proud of my kids!

  9 of 31 for the Slice of Life Challenge from Two Writing Teachers I've got to brag about my son.  Today was the regional math competition for 4th-6th grades, and my son once again went representing his school.  He was so happy to go again, and wasn't just the alternate like last year.  This year he earned a full spot and has been busy preparing for the contest for weeks.  His math club sponsors are wonderful and do such a great job getting them ready.  I truly appreciate their hard work. He took two tests; one in math concepts and one in problem solving.  After he finished, he told me he thought he placed in problem solving, but concepts was hard this year.   As it came time for the awards presentation,  I could see how nervous he was getting.  Last year he earned a 5th place, so his goal was to improve on that.  They presented the ribbons for concepts first, and several of his classmates did very well.  Next they called the winners for problem solving.  As they
