dayzelines: August 2009
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 26, 2009. So, how then do I encourage my students and my children to get smart, to be smart? Even in my Honors and AP classes, students label others as "the smart ones." All of them are in a class designed for advanced students and yet many do not view themselves as smart. And then others assume they are smart and do not work very hard at getting smart.

dayzelines: March 2012
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 5, 2012. Tonight I took my sons out to eat after my middle son, Nicholas, completed his Kung Fu testing with a terrific performance. We just went to a fast food place and we had items on the value menu, so it was not a lavish excursion. But they loved it, especially the cookies (which at this particular restaurant are amazing)!

dayzelines: September 2009
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 12, 2009. What does it take for unity to occur? First, we must share a common purpose. As I watch students walk through the door into the classroom each day, I wonder what purpose they have for being there. Is it to learn? Is it to develop themselves into more thoughtful, reflective human beings capable of understanding how others experience life and communicating effectively about how they experience theirs?

dayzelines: I'm Moving...
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2010/05/im-moving.html
Tuesday, May 4, 2010. No, not to Hawaii. Or Alabama. Or even around the corner. I'm just moving my blog. It occurred to me that it might be nice if the URL and the title of the blog were actually the same. I know - some of us have to get things messy before we can figure out how to clean stuff up :) Anyway, all posts will now be at More Than I Should Bear. Posted by Nick Elliott. It will remain in my heart! April 5, 2011 at 9:04 PM. View my complete profile. More than i should bear. Follow me on Twitter.

dayzelines: Change...For the Better?
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2010/04/changefor-better.html
Saturday, April 24, 2010. Change.For the Better? We are not cisterns made for hoarding, we are channels made for sharing. I am making some changes to my blog and for the few of you out there who are on this journey with me, I hope the changes are only for the good. Essentially, I want to expand what I am doing here - venture into some new areas in terms of my writing and sharing it with you. I have been following The Pioneer Woman. Posted by Nick Elliott.

dayzelines: June 2009
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2009. Plus, how can I hope for my students to see the beauty and purpose of a writing life if I do not engage in a writing life of my own? This needs to be a priority - not only optimism, but also necessity for an authentic experience with my students compels me to pursue it. Posted by Nick Elliott. Links to this post.

Saturday, March 20, 2010. Baby Chicks and Spring Break. My friend, K. had her twin girls about two months ago and finally has both little dolls under her roof together after they spent weeks at the NICU. While I know that she and her husband are thrilled with finally having both girls at home, the uncertainties of parenting are only beginning for them. Or, "No, do not run out on front of the moving cars! Although we would probably pick a warm day at a SoCal beach over gloomy skies and parkas anytime!

dayzelines: December 2009
http://dayzelines.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. Again, With Passion! Today I spoke with a woman who works in retail. She shared with me that her manager is not much of a motivator. Recently, the store fell just shy of their monthly sales goal. "Why," this woman asked, "didn't our manager tell us we were only a few hundred dollars short? Why didn't she call all of her friends and family to come in for an end-of-the-year spree? Why didn't she tell each of us employees that if we bought one item, the store would make its goal?
