Day 12 of the March SOLSC #SOL17

Sunday March 12, 2017Monday March 13, 2017 Betsy Hubbard

Welcome to the twelfth day of the 10^th Annual Slice of Life Story Challenge!

If you’re sharing your students’ slice of life stories, please head over to the Classroom Challenge.

Announcements

Did you see the invitation to participate in the commenting challenge? Be sure to check it out and if you would like, read and comment on 60 or more SOLSC posts! Remember to fill out the Google Form located here by 11:59 EDT this evening to be in the running for the prize should you meet the goal. Happy reading and happy slicing.

In case you missed it, Eastern Standard Time (EST) changed to Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) at 2:00 a.m. this morning. This means there will be one less hour to slice (23 hours instead of 24) for all slicers today. Though the time change will continue for the remainder of the challenge, we will be back to having 24 hours again tomorrow.

BE INSPIRED

Chris at Reading Amid the Chaos wrote a post titled Love. I always love seeing the different formats people use for their slices. This one might be one you could try this month. She began her post with Love is, going on to list the many moments of love she noticed throughout her day.
