Year 8

It is crazy to think that I will be starting my 8th year of teaching this fall. In many ways I have grown as a teacher and in some ways I feel I have lost my way. That is why this summer I have been taking the time to refocus on what I feel is important and how to best serve my students. So with that I am excited to share my journey with you this year. I have decided to revamp a lot of aspects of my teaching thsi year. Some of it hopefully will work and some thing may not. But that is ok. I feel if we are not trying new things or growing as teachers we are not giving our best to our students. I teach 7th grade Language Arts in Florida. I have only taught that grade and content. So this year I am going to try and be an adventourous teacher. I will try things out of my comfort zone and what I think will benifit the students. I have done some great professional development trainings this summer that have really helped me recenter myself in this, sometimes, difficult field.
