It's November. Time for the air to get chilly, the sun to set early, and my head to
explode!
Now don't get me wrong, my head exploding can be a good thing, a bad thing, or a bit of both.
It's the feeling of wanting to jump on EVERY SINGLE good idea I hear and wanting to be part of
all the cooooool
learning
and new books
and shared reading experiences
in classrooms around my building.
But, I have my own programs and students and testing and reading and learning to do as well.
Hmpf.
It's a good problem to have.

In other news....
I'm finally finding my groove. I've got a mess of data and notes that need to be organized
(same mess, new school!)
I have a rhythm to my day.
(and there's a few minutes for a bathroom break!)
My students are gems
and my coworkers have accepted me into the tribe.
It's November. Time to make sure we all take care of ourselves, soak up ALL the sunshine we can,
and take time to smell the Mr. Sketch markers.
