I have moved from 8th grade to 7th grade over the summer.  This is a change that I am open to.  I have been excited about.  I am interested in the challenge.  All that said, I also spend a little bit of time wondering, if it has been the right move.  To stay where I was for the last 7 years was very comfortable.  Predictable.  Safe.  I knew the game.  I knew the people.  All was good in my orderly little world.

However,  I am excited about the team that I have been placed with.  I am pleased to finally have my room settled.  I am excited about the challenge of developing activities for a new curriculum.  This is going to be good.  It is going to be a lot of work… but it is going to be good.  I am happy to be planning with friends to create the science curriculum…. I am happy to be able to think about TRUE interdisciplinary units.  Now… to make it all a reality.  Today it begins. 

Anna has already started her sophomore year in high school.  She loves CECHS!  Emily will be in the 8th grade.  She has a fabulous team!  Isaac will be in 2nd grade.  We meet his teacher today.

I like a fresh start.  Lets make this a good one!
