First the laptop, then the wireless router. A few technology snags but with a little time and patience or a checkbook - it will get figured out! What more could a person ask for??? A wireless printer! That is next on my list of must have technology.
This is all so new and exciting! I can't wait to try something new. M focus this month has to be school things. I have been looking for some new ideas for 100th day of school, Valentine's Day (AKA Clifford's birthday), Dr. Seuss' birthday and I have to turn in my Educational Portfolio at the end of this month. I want to do something different than the normal 3 ring notebook which is norm for my school. I am going electronic. I have downloaded most of my information into a PowerPoint presentation. We will see how it goes. Worse case - he hates it and I print it all out, put in the 3 ring notebook like the norm.
I lost over 4 hours last night and all I was doing was looking up "school stuff" and "knitting stuff" --- only planned on being online for a hour or so and then go to bed early get a good nights rest and be ready for the 100th day of school. I don't know how long I was online...I got lost in all that information. Seriously I didn't know where time went but when I looked up from all that information it was nearly
My knitting is still sitting next to me - begging to be worked on...The Einstein is not getting its fair share of time...my Valentine's deadline will be here before you know it! My lovely sock sits next to my sweater looking small and neglected. I can't wait until this weekend to spend with my knitting friends and just KNIT!
I have not shared my school days on this blog but I have to shout out how much I loved school today! I went to school exhausted from the night of Internet overdose but I came home feeling excited about the day. It was 100th day of school. The kids absolutely loved the day. They went home so excited and full of love for math and school. I LIVE FOR DAYS LIKE TODAY! I came home exhausted, a migraine headache...overwhelmed by the amount of work I have to do yet excited for my next favorite day of teaching - Dr. Seuss' birthday - March 2nd. Today was all about math, March 2nd is all about reading. The confidence they have about their ability and the excitement for tomorrow is intoxicating.
Next blog - pictures - less words - something new and different - maybe something about actually knitting! HA HA
