COMING ATTRACTIONS

Here are some plans I have for this blog:

  1. A guest post from a first grader in a bi-lingual class (hopefully with a translation and comment about the author from her teacher.)
  2. To discontinue The Sunday (Evening) Post. Sunday is either a day of rest or the busiest day of my week; therefore it is not a good day post on. Also, there is no way I can keep up with what I have read, am reading, and hope to read.  I’m abandoning my life as a confirmed “planner,” and assuming a more spontaneous outlook to life! LOL
  3. Either a Thursday Thoughts or a Monday Musings post once each week.
  4. Some “fun” posts.
  5. A bit of poetry, not my own, but others’.
  6. If you have suggestions, let me know!

THANKS!

This year (2019) finds me with 50 plus years of teaching "under my belt." I have taught all levels from pre-K "(library lady" or "book lady"--volunteer) to juniors, seniors, and graduate students enrolled in my Advanced Writing class at the university where I have just completed 30 years. My first paying teaching job was junior high, and I spent 13 years with ages 12-13, the "difficult years." I had some of the "funnest" experiences with this age group. When I was no longer the "young, fun teacher," I taught in an elementary school setting before sixth graders went on to junior high, teaching language arts blocs, an assignment that was a "dream-fit" for me. After completing graduate school in my 40s, I went on to community college, then university teaching. Just as teaching is "in my blood," so is a passion for reading, writing, libraries, and everything bookish. This blog will be open to anyone who loves books, promotes literacy and wants to "come out and play."
