Rambling thoughts…….

Posted by Flo  Published in General Nonsense, school

I did not realize I haven’t posted in a week. Where have I been?? Oh, that’s right, working. I’m a teacher. It’s been a good week and hopefully it will keep up that way.

Gearing up

Posted by Flo  Published in school

Next Tuesday I embark on my new career.  It’s so very exciting and scary at the same time.  It’s something that I’ve thought of doing for years and now to be facing the moment is so incredibly exciting.  I’m on the verge of a big change and I really can’t wait to see what the [...]

Has it been that long

Posted by Flo  Published in Life, school

The final hurdle is cleared

Posted by Flo  Published in school

Well, that’s not technically true but I’m going with it for now.  I’ve explained before that to be a teacher you have to take a series of tests that start with math, reading, and writing; next is content knowledge so they know you are master of your subject; then there’s pedagogy which shows you know [...]

Evolution

Posted by Flo  Published in Blogging

Evolution: a process in which something passes by degrees to a different stage. I think that’s happening to me.  When I first started blogging it was all for me.  I didn’t care if I had any readers or got any comments.  That went on for almost a year.  Then slowly I started visiting other blogs [...]

Posted by Flo  Published in General Nonsense

I’ve just been super, super busy. Teaching summer school during the day, going to a class 4 nights a week, papers to grade and write, yikes!! Not much time for fun stuff at all. But there is only 3 more days of summer school left, so that should ease up just a bit. I then [...]
