Civility, Civility, Civility

In this world we live in we need more of this.  And it needs to start with me.  If you choose you may join with me. I think it's time to dust off my 100 random acts of kindness unit again for the next school year.

Those Who Can Teach


Yes I'm a teacher! I have been teaching for almost 25 years. My parents were teachers. Many of my brothers and sisters are or have been teachers. My great grandmother’s brother's name is on the education building and the U of U. Teaching has been in my family's blood since my Welsh great great grandfather named one of his sons Milton, after the British poet, because he wanted an educated person in the family.

Love What You Do

Henry B. Eyring quoting his father Henry Eyring

“You ought to find something that you love so much that when you don’t have to think about anything, that’s what you think about.”

I always thought I was just being OCD when it came to thinking about how and why children learn and teaching them in school. I guess I should embrace my OCDness and quit worrying about it.
