Welcome to November everybody! Maybe this is your first time joining us for our weekly Slice of Life Story Challenge. If that’s the case, we’re so glad you’ve decided to join in the fun!
All you need to do is write a story from your life and post it on your own blog. Then, leave a comment below containing the permalink to your post. Click here if you do not know what permalink means. (It’s okay, we were all new to this at one point!).
Next, read and comment on at least three other bloggers’ Slice of Life Stories! Then sit back and enjoy all the writerly love that you will receive in return!
For all you veteran Slicers out there, we encourage you to branch out and comment on a newcomer’s post if you can spare a moment! That’s how this community grows.
We’d also like to invite you all to follow our current blog series. This week we are all sharing tips on how to manage a classroom full of individual needs and goals, and stacks and stacks of notebooks and folders!
And, on Monday, November 10 at 8:30 EST we’ll host a Twitter Chat on this topic. Join us with the hashtag #TWTBlog.
Have fun!
Stacey, Beth, Tara, Anna, Betsy, and Dana

One day late! Had the day off yesterday and so did the kids. http://ctwritingtutor.blogspot.com/2014/11/on-both-sides-now.html

This is really late for me to be up writing, but it’s a story I’ve been wanting to write. I had to wait for the feelings to not be so raw and to know that things would be ok. Thank you for being a community where I can share stories like these. http://www.raisingreadersandwriters.com/2014/11/the-metamorphosis-of-my-house.html

Sometimes, our weeks are more sad than happy; then, an image pops into the feed that makes us smile. That is my world today.
I’m not even sure I can post here like this. I’ve gone private. Hope you all can still find me.

It wouldn’t let me view your Slice – but I sent you a request to grant me permission
Permission granted. But I tried commenting on other people’s posts, and I couldn’t.

Hi Everyone!
Just recently found this blog & the Slice series. Jumping in a little late this evening, but today’s NaBloPoMo post on my blog is certainly a personal story as my baby sister (34) begins her fight against breast cancer.

Hope you’ll stop by. Other days, I write about classroom life. 🙂
