It has to wait...

I've been MIA on this blog thing for a while, and it's either because I've been too busy....or because I've been preoccupied with facebook and pinterest, my two major vices.  Ugh facebook, why are you such a time suck?  The sad thing is that the majority of the time I'm just gawking at other people's statuses rather than actually communicating with the people who write them, and what good is that.  And Pinterest.....we have a love/hate relationship.  I love it because where else would I find the fine idea to spray paint boring old rain books with glittery spray paint and create amazing glitter boots?!  And where else could I find a delicious recipe for chicken alfredo made entirely in ONE pan?!  And where would I dig up clever teaching ideas to use in my classroom next year?!

Oh wait, Pinterest, I have that last one covered.....and that's why this blog post has to end so abruptly, because I'm in the middle of a pretty amazing lesson plan/project/activity/whateveryouwanttocallit that just can't wait.....which is why this blog post has to!

I'm working on my long-promised Writer's Notebook tonight, and I've made it to week 11.  I'm pretty pleased with myself.  Tonight's project is a review of Topic Sentences and the details that support them, an activity that will have a hold-over effect and be used for a few follow-up lessons as well, assuming it all works out and I can get my thoughts out of my brain and onto the Word document I'm creating.

So maybe sometime someone will be pinning MY great teacher ideas onto pinterest....one can only hope!
