a little bit of everything
Hello friends! I woke up this morning realizing that I hadn’t posted for over three weeks. I am ashamed. But seeing as this is the day to get back into the swing of things (well really, yesterday was, since I started lesson planning again) we might as well start off with a blog post. Or…
Did that sound right in a sentence? The words “fat” and “Special K” together? It didn’t to me, simply because Special K has been touted for years as the go-to cereal healthy people should eat to stay slim and fabulous. So what exactly is Special K trying to say in this ad?

The weird thing about being really excited to finally be in an education program is that I’m beginning to perceive everything in education terms. Everything. I’m listening to my friends teach each other and thinking that they’re doing a good job of scaffolding, but that they could use a little more wait-time in between their…
It’s a Friday night, the rain is pouring outside (finally!) and I’m writing up lesson plans for a senior accounting class. Such is the life of a student teacher. Call me strange but I’m actually in so much bliss. Ah, life. A break is in order though, so let’s talk about some of the weird…
