My Tagxedo

I created a Tagxedo using the titles to some of my favorite authors' books. Ever since I can remember, I have loved reading and sharing Shel Silverstein's books with others. I read The Giving Tree every year to my class during the first week of school as a way to open up a discussion on how to treat others and being kind. I still cry today when I read it! I know, I am a softy but who could resist with such a fabulous story. Break out the tissues! 

WELCOME !!

Welcome to my first attempt at creating a blog!! Please hang in there with me while I learn and figure the blogger world out! I am currently a third grade teacher in a very small rural community. I am creating this blog to chronicle my journey and transition from the classroom into the libraryland. I hope you will join me as it is sure to be an exciting ADVENTURE !!

My Design Choices and Thoughts
I wanted to create a blog that spoke to my personality and was fun to read! I chose the font Crafty girls because I think it not only is appealing to the eye but perfectly describes me.  When I can find the time, I love a good project!! The background I selected would not surprise anyone who knows me as my entire classroom is decorated in lime green. This color  just seems to evoke feelings of happiness!
