Afternoon 6-22

I feel like a sponge and at times I get oversaturated but for the most part, right now, its like I cannot get enough. :) Donna was amazing today. I really enjoyed her demo and I am so excited to adapt it in my classroom. My kids will learn research so much faster and probably enjoy it a whole lot more through this strategy. Linda's was also wonderful. I could see her passion for her students and loved seeing all the things she is pushing her sweet kids to do. Her strategy is also one that I can adapt for my 8th graders. I am really appreciating the chance to write so much and I love feeling even more like a writer. I have a lot of things which are in process which is rather overwhelming but I am confident it will all come together.
I never would have thought that I would be attempting to publish to a journal, I mean who cares what I have to say? People still may not but the point is I am trying.
I need to get better with making decisions but I think a lot of my struggle has to do w/a lack of information and having no idea how busy my life is going to be and what I can fit in... so there is that. But here we are ending day 9 already, where is the time going?? Technically we are at day 12, craziness?! I am excited for tomorrow's demos and to see how our video footage assignments turn out. The creative juices are flowing. :)
