Taking the Plunge

So for the past year or two I have followed a couple of teacher blogs looking (aka stealing) ideas. In the past year, I have started following more and more and... well, you get the picture. There are so many amazing blogs and teachers out there and after a few minutes of thought, I decided I'd take the plunge and see what I could do.

A warning...I am not horribly computer knowledgeable. Last night I joined www.pinterest.com - awesome site! Email me for an invite - it's really cool and addictive. I was on it for hours trying to discover how to use it and pin. I figured it out on my laptop, but the pc and I are still arguing about it. I don't know how to post more than one picture to a post, so we'll see how that goes. I am willing to try though - isn't that supposed to be half the battle?

My 'about me' section kept telling me there was an error so I'll try again later. For now, here are the nitty gritties. I am a wife to a wonderful husband. I am also a mom to an amazing 5 year old boy, I'll call him Little R. Little R is going to start kindergarten in my school this fall and his teacher is a great friend of mine. It's going to be interesting having him in the same building! When I first started teaching I taught grades 5-8 for the first 3 years. I then took a few years off and went into restaurant management. The classroom was calling me back though, so I moved 700 miles away and started teaching at a small Catholic school where I remain today. My first 2 years I taught 3rd grade and then I moved to 2nd grade and have stayed there ever since. I love it!

Thanks for stopping by. I don't promise much, but I'm going to try to post some ideas and things I've been doing in the classroom.
