I have not been blogging here in quite some time. But great things have been happening. I now work at a school close to me. I have great students and staff to work with. I have a new student teacher, Carly. Next week two first-year students start their journey toward obtaining their special education credential.
I have the opportunity to go into general education classes and set them up with google docs. I help the teachers and the students become more familiar with it. I also teach them how to use google read-write extension.
I also am a resource of how to make your iPad work with ST Math. Students come into my room for help. I took the plunge this year and wrote a grant on DonorsChoose.org and wow, I have two grants funded already.
My students love their wobble chair and bouncy chair. I love my new book cart and movable white board. We have 12 students learning phonics in my room every day.
My tutoring business is still doing well. I currently work 4 hours a week and find that is doable. I am involved at my church with choir, bells and prayer quilts. I am involved with the community with La Playa Trail - a historical group in Point Loma.
I have two grandsons, 8 and 4 and another grandchild on the way. I still enjoy skiing, boogie boarding and walking my dogs. There never seems to be enough time for everything. But life is good.
