Thanks goes to Eugenia for recommending that I put up this blog for inclusion in the Espiral Edublogs 2010 awards. You can see the entry here. All comments are welcomed and appreciated.

I have been toying with this idea of blogging for some time now. It took some gentle nudging from a former student, who felt that the passion I have for teaching and literacy was worth sharing with a larger audience, to finally get me to take the leap!

I've never been through a period where I fail to blog.  However, I have had periods where I think, ''I need to come up with something better,'' or ''This is starting to sound too much like what everyone else is saying.''  If I allow this spiralling mental monologue to continue, I'll end in self-defeat and never blog about anthying.

Most students only use My Space for all of their social networking needs, and did not even seem to realize that setting up a blog outside of My Space was even an option at their disposal.
