Currently Teaching in Alabama }. Tuesday, August 2, 2011. Things I Never Thought I'd Say - #2. I slept in an antebellum mansion the other night.". A few of the corps members are renting a legit Antebellum mansion in Eutaw (about 20 or 30 minutes away), and I spent the night there once last week when I had to be Greensboro really early in the morning (before I had moved into my home). Just another of the many reasons I'm excited to be living in the deep South for a couple years. Math Praxis in Tuscaloosa.

Currently Teaching in Alabama }. Wednesday, August 3, 2011. Please Redirect Yourself (to My Other Blog). For the last few months now, I have been keeping up two blogs - this one and another one hosted by Wordpress. Exactly the same content, but just hosted two different places. That's mostly because I'm lazy and haven't taken the time to figure out how to automatically route this site to that site. So, my friends, I give you this link: www.virginiafrommontana.com. All My Love,. Links to this post. A few ...

Virginia from Montana: Refreshed and Renewed
http://virginiafilms.blogspot.com/2011/07/refreshed-and-renewed.html
Currently Teaching in Alabama }. Sunday, July 24, 2011. Oklahoma has been good to me. Since deciding to go to school there four years ago, it has become my home, full of amazing memories and people I love (and miss dearly). So last week, when someone in BamaCorps mentioned that they were driving to Oklahoma for the week break between Institute and Orientation, I almost died of happiness. Would I like to come with her? Hell yes, I want to come with you! But all good things must come to an end eventually&#...

Virginia from Montana: Math Praxis in Tuscaloosa
http://virginiafilms.blogspot.com/2011/08/math-praxis-in-tuscaloosa.html
Currently Teaching in Alabama }. Monday, August 1, 2011. Math Praxis in Tuscaloosa. Last Saturday, before our week of Teach For America Orientation in Birmingham (getting ready for the school year), I had to take the Secondary Math Praxis in Tuscaloosa. Joy. When I started Induction in June, I was told that there weren’t enough Social Studies positions hiring, so I chose to also interview for math. I got a math job. Which means I’d have to take the math Praxis. This is how we felt after the test. Oh, and...

Currently Teaching in Alabama }. Wednesday, July 27, 2011. I keep finding all these pictures from the summer that I never posted (and blog ideas that never made it up). Institute will do that to you, I guess. But now I have a relatively clear week, so I can get around to putting up all the pictures I've taken recently. The first of these are pictures from my excursion to Po' Monkey during the FIRST weeks of Institute. Yes please. A no-brainer. Um, thanks but no thanks. So on the first Thursday of Institu...
