Flor*Essence 7 day Purification Program

I cannot believe I have finally picked up my cleanse kit. I have gone through a life changing cleanse before, but this is something I am doing not with a doctor’s recommendation. Previously, I was put on a whole slew of herbal remedies to help rid my body of some nasty parasites I managed to [...]

Way too long!

It has been a long time since I have written anything on here.  As I am listening to a pre-recorded webinar leveraging technology, I realized that I have not taken the time lately to check out some of the new Web 2.0 applications available.  As I begin to reassess these exciting technological applications, I will [...]

Tuesday March 4, 2008

First class today, I was able to teach the grade 9 math class.  We just started the unit on data analysis and probability.  The students are a bright group who are a pleasure to teach.  Trying to keep the students interested isn’t too difficult, they are an inquisitive bunch.  Tomorrow is World Math Day, so [...]

Have the Students Changed That Much?!

YES!!! Most definitely children have changed.  Not only has their attitude changed, but the way they think has changed, as well.  I am a new teacher, new to the way kids think, act, and respond to schoo.  However, I am not new to how kids act outside of school, on weekends, at the arena and [...]

Oh, what a day….but we all have them once in a while!!!

Well, lets begin with the facT that I was running just on time today.  Normally, I try to give myself a 15 minutes window or cushion when getting ready and leaving for school. I aim to leave around 7:30, but sometimes I do not get to leave until 8:00, which gets me there just in [...]

One person who [...]

One Month In!

So we have been working in our internship positions for about one month now.  Well, almost a month.  Things are going smoothly, except for the situations for which I have no control over.  Since being in Luseland, I have managed to get my drive to school down to 20 minutes, if I have to.  Since [...]
