Day 2 is a special day, it’s my birthday. So on day 2 of my journey I am thankful for all my friends and family. The ones I see in person and the ones I have found a way to share their lives on Facebook. While I am not an avid or professional Facebook participant, it has allowed me to share lives of grand nieces and grand nephews and great grand nieces and great grand nephews around the world and they have found a forever place in my heart. I will always be thankful for that.

It is a new year and I am making my life and finding the purpose of it. In the next week I will be telling my story and then as I find new things I will write about them here.

First the history. I am learning how to live without my classroom or my classroom kids. Teaching was my life for 30 years and I really never thought I would retire, I would just teach until I died. Then I got injured and could not teach in a classroom in a high needs, inner city environment anymore. Now what do I do? You can follow me on my journey. It’s been a year since I have been in a classroom. I never had children of my own but I taught other people’s children and we did so much more then just book learning. Each year the kids were my life. So here we go 2014. One day at a time.

What do you do when your job consumes your life and then it’s gone? By accident, purpose or design? I believe everything happens for a reason and I need to find out what this one is!

WELCOME to my virtual classroom. I have many people who ask me about my classroom, how it works, my management style, and how I do what I do everyday. Here is where I will be posting my classroom created documents, work ideas, booklets, and photos.

Please feel free to use and adapt anything you see here for your classroom but please credit me.

If you would like to use anything for professional use, workshops, conferences, conventions please email me before you use it. It has taken 24 years of hard work to create and make my documents.

None of the documents can be used for publishing outside of classroom use.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoy watching this website grow.
