ruth’s solc: the harmonica.
Snuggled on the couch. Surrounded by my favorite quilt. Alone. I hold a new book. I take a moment to notice the dark cover. Although it is hand-drawn, it almost looks like a photo. Barbed wire slashes through a boy in stripes, holding a harmonica. In the background, more men in stripes look on. They all… Continue reading ruth’s solc: the harmonica.

Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: Day 4
We Voted Together! #3 & #4 at the Polling Place! Originally uploaded by teachergal I didn't care if I am sick. I'm voting today! "What time do you think we need to leave to go and vote?" I asked Marc. "6:50, 6:55..." he responded. "I cannot believe the polls don't open 'til 7 here! I… Continue reading Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: Day 4

ruth’s solc: first words of the day.
Sam woke up early this morning. I ignored the noises on the monitor since I was still in the middle of my morning routine. However, I stopped in the middle of swiping on my MAC eyeshadow when I heard: I need to find my momma now! I suppressed a giggle and thought: I'd better acknowledge… Continue reading ruth’s solc: first words of the day.

Preservation
My SOLS go in here! Originally uploaded by teachergal I decided to purchase an inexpensive presentation booklet from Staples for the purpose of housing my Slice of Life Stories since I'm writing them electronically, rather than in my writer's notebook. However, how does one preserve their students' Slice of Life Stories? Well, my colleague Kate… Continue reading Preservation

Not Quite the Start I Hoped For… But Not Bad
Eight of my 18 kids (two were absent) came into school today with their Slice of Life Story Entries from the weekend. I was hoping to have more like 90% of my students come in with their entries written today, but I guess you cannot get everything you wish for, right? However, let's focus on… Continue reading Not Quite the Start I Hoped For… But Not Bad

Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: Day 3
The alarm buzzed in my ear at 5:15 a.m. I'm still sick, but I'm going in! Therefore, I took about three more minutes and then rolled right out of bed. I headed to the computer (because that's what all tech-addicted people do when they wake up in the morning) to check my e-mail. Then, it… Continue reading Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: Day 3

ruth’s solc: recovery food.
Let me begin by revealing that I am a really bad taker of naps. Actually, that is an understatement. I doubt there are many out there who are worse than I. Seriously. There are some who can nap for 15 minutes and wake up refreshed. I live with one of these kinds of people. For… Continue reading ruth’s solc: recovery food.

Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: Day 2
I finished attaching ribbon, to the wooden boxes I painted, earlier this morning. I decided I had gotten enough practice painting practice. Therefore, it was time to bring out the stencil and have a go with the stenciling. I've been wanting to do stenciling (using a template!) for years. However, I always made excuses why… Continue reading Stacey’s Slice of Life Story: Day 2
