July is here!!!

July is here, and for me that marks my summer being half-way over.   This is a time of mixed emotion.  I am sad to see summer end:  late nights, late mornings, pool time, midday naps, etc..  I am also excited about the start of my new adventure at school next year. 

This will mark my 9th year teaching.  I have taught two years in 1st grade, six years in 2nd grade, and this will be my first year in 4th grade.  I will be teaching Reading, LA, and Writing.  For those that know me well, this is a great fit for me.  I LOVE to read.  I am always looking for a new book to start, and my husband....well, he jokes when I start a new book and says "there goes supper until she finishes..."

Another interesting fact about my blogging is simple... I am very ADD when it comes to writing.  It is like cleaning my house.  I begin to clean one areas and before I realize it, I have four or five different task started.  My writing is similar in that as I begin writing blogging I jump around on subjects.  That is one reason I think I am going to like this!  I love having a forum to address great ideas and not have to always worry about staying on task.  There is a time in writing to stay on task and a time to just have fun and let your thoughts flow.

Here is to happy blogging and reading!
