Every Tuesday, the team at Two Writing Teachers invites you to write a slice of life post, share your permalink in the comments below, and give a comment or two to other writers.
Even though fall is one of the busiest times of the year in the teaching world, it’s also a time for renewal as we begin a new school year, grow relationships with new students and colleagues, and spread our wings to try new things in both our professional and personal lives. Take some time today to sit, reflect, write, and share a slice of life with us!
Staying home with a bad cold (as opposed to a good one!) has made me reflect on the word – ingenuity – new tea concoctions, new soup recipes, and a new sport (thanks to a young neighbor)!

Owls! I saw one this summer and was thrilled. I’m not sure what kind. He was small grayish white with calm yellow eyes. Wonderful!

I think Rosie and Rosette must be woven into a children’s book! It’s okay to name them.
