I couldn't be prouder of my students today. I felt the need to boast about them to my husband when I got home from work this evening since they had a very intense discussion about the revision of one of our classroom rules this afternoon. (See Rule #1 on the photo, which has been cropped… Continue reading WN Entry: Today’s Closing Circle

Poetry Friday: Something New
Yesterday I checked in on a blog that is becoming a favorite -- Cool People I Know. Little Purple Cow (aka Stephanie) had posted a poem in a form called etheree. (It's a focus on syllables. Each line gains a syllable until you reach the last line of 10.) Her poem inspired me to write one… Continue reading Poetry Friday: Something New

Ruth’s WN Entry: Bath Time Routine
So, I totally forgot to take photos of the pre-dinner routine. I'll try for it this weekend & make another post on Inspiring Readers & Writers.

I’m Back.
In a recent email, I explained to Stacey that life has just consumed me recently and the blogging end of it has taken the hit. The past few weeks have been bittersweet.

WN ENTRY: Traditions
There is a wedding tradition that involves lifting the bride and groom above the crowd at a wedding celebration. Further, as in Orthodox Custom, they´re not supposed to touch. This photo represents that tradition... and also shows how scary it can be to be hoisted up on a chair, holding on with only one hand,… Continue reading WN ENTRY: Traditions
