Teacher of the year?

October 7, 2017October 7, 20175 Comments

Probably not. I work hard, love my kids, share my extreme passion for all things science and do my best to teach and inspire them. I also do and say various dumb things on any given occasion. Yesterday was no exception. Read on for details of two great teacher fails of the day. I forgot … Continue reading Teacher of the year?

Funny Friday #5

May 12, 2017May 12, 2017Leave a comment

Know what's not funny? State testing. It's exhausting. The kids are exhausted. The teachers are exhausted. And I bet all the parents are exhausted too. All that stress and pressure and unnecessary anxiety. Oh wait, you want to know how I really feel?  Okay fine...I'll tell you... I've been a teacher for 14 years. 9 … Continue reading Funny Friday #5

Funny Friday #4

April 28, 2017May 2, 2017Leave a comment

I'm not ready to quit. You know, throw in the towel and all. Not on telling cheesy jokes. No that will continue...for sure. For pretty much ever. I meant on writing this Funny Friday series. I'm not very good at sticking to a blogging schedule. But I honestly think that's probably best. I can't claim … Continue reading Funny Friday #4

Tell a Stupid Joke Tuesday

March 21, 2017May 2, 20174 Comments

I was a slacker last week. I didn't post for my Funny Friday series. I had material. I was just lazy. Hey people I made it two weeks. So in honor of my two week record, I decided I'd post for "Tell a Stupid Joke Tuesday". Yes I made that up.  Impressed yet? Last week, … Continue reading Tell a Stupid Joke Tuesday

Funny Friday #2

March 10, 2017May 2, 20174 Comments

I'll try to keep it short, but I do have a story to tell. I like to think I'm an engaging teacher. I teach. And the kids learn. Like maybe it could be that simple. However, middle schoolers can have an entirely different agenda. You know, raging hormones and all. So more often than not, … Continue reading Funny Friday #2

Funny Friday #1

March 3, 2017May 2, 20174 Comments

A well known fact from the depths of my classroom: I tell jokes. Really bad ones. All the time. In fact, the cheesier the better. "I like cheesy jokes, they're GRATE" And they're always nerd alert science jokes related to our topic of study. Sometimes the kids get them and sometimes they don't. But I … Continue reading Funny Friday #1

Be Fit and Eat Healthy

October 2, 2016October 2, 2016Leave a comment

I'm writing this to hold myself accountable. I like carbs. Not the good healthy ones. The bad processed ones. Like, I could eat cookies and cheez-its for every meal. Last week, I stress ate about 20 packages of swedish fish (the little halloween sized ones, but still). It's hard to eat well in the summer because … Continue reading Be Fit and Eat Healthy

Weekends Have Meaning Again…

September 11, 2016May 2, 20176 Comments

It's true. All summer the weekend was really an extension of my days off. I did work a lot over the summer though. Whether it was finishing classes so that I could get to the next step on the pay scale or STEM meetings or conferences. I'm almost to the bottom right corner of the … Continue reading Weekends Have Meaning Again…

Back to School…

August 22, 2016May 2, 20176 Comments

While this is not an official 40 before 40 adventure, it's definitely an adventure in which I partake each August... Let me set the scene: The children are getting excited about seeing their friends, who's in their classes and which teachers they have... They are ready to sport their new clothes, haircuts and gear... Parents are out … Continue reading Back to School…

I have a confession…

August 7, 2016May 2, 20177 Comments

It's true. I've been in denial, but the proof is in the blog. I think I might be an attention whore. Let me explain. I've been receiving positive feedback about my writing. My ramblings speak to moms, teachers, almost 40 somethings or anyone who is getting a little older... And I like to make people … Continue reading I have a confession…
