A new grade, a new blog, and new summer plans!

After five years of teaching kinder and first, I am going back to second grade! I moved to a new school last year and taught first...and now I will be looping with my firsties into second! I know already that this coming school year is going to be exciting, busy, and full of learning.

I have not been good at blogging but I am going to attempt to try again:) I am hoping that if I start the blog over the summer, I will be able to get into the habit and make some good connections with other bloggers! My goal is to join the ranks of the many helpful and amazing blogs out there in blogland. I am looking forward to seeing what I can learn about blogs and blogging, and will hopefully make some friends along the way!

I had been looking forward to spending the summer at home working on some much needed housework and then planning for the upcoming year. However, apparently God had other plans for me and I am currently in Washington visiting my family. My grandmother was very sick and in the hospital and we weren't sure she was going to recover. So I dropped everything and flew up here. I now find myself with a lot of time on my hands while caregiving. I am thankful for the opportunity to be here for my family and this will give me some time to work on this blog...and I can't complain about the view!




Compared to Arizona, it is freezing here! But the sun has been out and I should be able to get some work done on this blog! I am also planning on reading the book "Guided Math" if time allows so I am looking forward to getting some ideas and do some preliminary work on planning, at least math time!

Well, I guess that's for now...I'm not even sure anyone is going to read this:) Hope some bloggy friends visit soon!
