My students and I have been loving Mrs. Wishy Washy these past two weeks!What a perfect way to get little readers confident and excited about reading other than Mrs. Wishy Washy? I just think that Shared Reading is such a powerful learning experience. This is my favorite one to start with. By the end of […]

Gettin’ It Together…barely

September 8, 2013 by ·

On Friday, my thought was “What am I going to do next week!?!” The four day week completely threw me for a loop last week so I got all out of whack when it was Friday and it was supposed to be Thursday. Next week, we are going to do be reading Rhyming Dust Bunnies […]

Peek at my Week {first timer} Linky

August 25, 2013 by ·

This is like a never before rip the band aide off type post… I have always been too intimidated to partake in this linky party because Deedee is one of those people that is so on top of her game…I mean seriously. You just don’t know until you meet her. I had the opportunity to […]

Etiquette Out There

August 23, 2013 by ·

Quick thought tonight from my friend Tracy at Social Strand Media. I was just reading her post about 12 Facebook Mistakes that Every Small Business Should Avoid. I loved reading it because 1. She’s brilliant (she’s the mastermind behind the new web-site) 2. We should be taking her advice as bloggers and teacher sellers. Obviously, […]
