Way cool "schoolie-duty!!

So today was the first day of the Northeast Conference!! All I can say is WOW!!

It is such a small world...why you ask?? Well of all people to meet on the escalator of the Marriott Marquis between the fourth and fifth floors...but a girl who lives in Harlem, teaches in Brooklyn and grew up in a small town upstate...named SHERBURNE!!! Can you dig it?? It blew me right away I tell ya!! Psyched for tomorrow :)

Happy Sunny Monday...

...I am sitting in my mom's room, enjoying another cup of coffee and piggybacking on a neighbor's wireless internet...listening to all the city noises outside...I am glad to be back for the break and am soooo looking forward to the Northeast Conference of Foreign Language Teachers that begins on Thursday at the Marriott Hotel in the city. It is going to be way cool because I am taking a workshop on differentiation!! I hope to be able to bring back what I learn to you all and incorporate it into my classroom teaching as soon as Monday.

I am also heading out soon to the Teacher's Warehouse...to look for some Spanish and French props to help you guys make the concepts I try and teach you more concrete.

If I haven't said it enough....I love being your teacher!!

¡Gracias por todo!
