We thought it would be fun to have Slice of Life t-shirts created. Anna created a t-shirt on Ink to the People. Each t-shirt is $20. All of the proceeds from the shirt will benefit the Pajama Program. Here is the Pajama Program’s mission:
Pajama Program provides new pajamas and new books to children in need, many of whom are waiting and hoping to be adopted. These children live in various situations including group homes, shelters and temporary housing facilities and are shuffled often from one place to another. Many of them have been abandoned, abused or neglected. Most of these children have never enjoyed the simple comfort of having a mother or father tuck them in at bedtime with warm, clean pajamas and a bedtime story. Some of the children we serve are living with their families below the poverty level, in desperate need of food, clothing and shelter. (Retrieved on 8/29/14 from pajamaprogram.org.)

My hesitantly pleasant day. http://imlivingmywords.blogspot.com/2014/09/hesitation.html
Just trying to write every day…20 minutes…loved the projection of how much that would actually add up to over the course of the school year! 1/3 of the way to 10,000 hours…

It’s funny how memories find themselves repeating as we raise our own children. With a look to the future here is one such memory.

Hurray for t-shirts and the Pajama Project! I read about the project years ago and now have a PJ drive every year at my school. The teachers donate the books. We give them to a local outreach mission.

I love the idea of a t-shirt! Thanks, Anna! Thoughts about close reading have been swirling around my brain, but aren’t ready to be shared, so today I’m re-blogging a post from June 2013 about the similarities between mint and test prep (and testing in general).
