Wow! My first post- this is a lot of pressure!  So, a little background, I have been sitting here staring at this "blogger" page for four days trying to figure out just how this all works.  I wanted to start this blog because I felt like it is such a great way to be a more reflective teacher- something I always strive to do.  The question "why?" always gets me.  I know why, I just have a hard time expressing it.  I want to be able to share the "why's" and "how's" and "what's" of my classroom.  I want to share amazing resources and exciting news!  I am so excited to begin this journey and hopefully you will enjoy following me.

With that said, the beginning of my journey starts here- Spring Break 2012.  I am anxiously awaiting the 17th and 18th as I will be heading to Phoenix, AZ to attend the Daily 5 and CAFE workshop given by the sisters themselves!  I have been embarking on the Daily 5 and CAFE implementation journey for the past two and a half years and I am IN LOVE WITH IT!  What an amazing resource!  So, please stayed tuned for highlights from the workshop because I am sure I will have plenty to say!
