Back to the school I subbed in for art last week, about four doors past in fact in 4th and 5th grade row. It was another day with no break for specials, not even computer lab like Tuesday. The morning consisted of a large language arts block with a reading from their Treasures reading book […]
Of course we know last weekend was Easter weekend. For me, that means celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Of course, before a resurrection, there had to be a death. That is what Good Friday is all about. Now, some churches celebrate the entire week starting with Palm Sunday, going into Holy Monday – Holy
Back to the school entries- it’s been too long. Before I continue though, one of my friends mentioned that I have been too general with my district descriptions, that she is always wondering which district I’m talking about.

Winter Blast 2009 that is. Meh- this post is two days late I know. I just didn’t feel like doing a second post on Sunday, and I did start this yesterday but I really didn’t have the time I needed to write the whole thing between work and small group. Anyway, back to the post.
I’m just looking to see what sort of age groups you might be interested in teaching if you ever decided to teach. Feel free to choose more than one. You will note that there is some overlap in grades since not everyone defines the categories the same way. For example, in some places middle school

I have said in other posts that 5th grade is probably my favorite grade followed by 4th and then 6th. Well, yesterday I had a late call to sub for 5th and 6th grade. I knew I would be late and I wasn’t disappointed in this regard when I ended up 15 minutes late mostly
