My adventures in teaching, at home and abroad. Monthly Archives: January 2012. January 2, 2012. The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt:. The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 19,000. Times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 7 sold-out performances for that many people to see it. Click here to see the complete report. I had a baby! January 2, 2012.

My adventures in teaching, at home and abroad. Monthly Archives: February 2011. Tell Me About the Good Old Days. February 18, 2011. It seems like at least once a day I hear a teacher or other adult say something that amounts to, or implies, “School was a lot better (or kids were a lot better) in the 60s/70s/80s/90s.”. Here’s my question, for people who have been around longer than I have: what is the cause of this decline? Teacher or parent laziness? Need some creative ideas! February 12, 2011. Here̵...

My adventures in teaching, at home and abroad. Monthly Archives: August 2012. August 31, 2012. I wanted to share a few photos of my classroom from this year. These are the things I’ve set up so far–I did a LOT of cleaning out and organizing, and I’m actually really excited now to start the year because I get to try out all my new “systems” and because I finally have a pretty environment to work in🙂. I’ve been getting really inspired by the blog Clutter-Free Classroom. I’m going to post another few...

My adventures in teaching, at home and abroad. Monthly Archives: January 2011. January 2, 2011. The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health:. The average container ship can carry about 4,500 containers. This blog was viewed about 14,000. Times in 2010. If each view were a shipping container, your blog would have filled about 3 fully loaded ships. In 2010, there were 8. Where did they come from?

My adventures in teaching, at home and abroad. More of my classroom/teaching stuff 2012-2013 →. How sucking at Zumba makes me a better teacher. September 2, 2012. I recently started going to Zumba classes at the local YMCA. I’ve never been a particularly athletic person, and I don’t do very much exercising. I’ve also never been much of a dancer. Nonetheless, my friend was going to the classes so I decided to try it too. Click to email (Opens in new window). Click to print (Opens in new window). Enter you...

November | 2010 | American Teacher
https://missmarista.wordpress.com/2010/11
My adventures in teaching, at home and abroad. Monthly Archives: November 2010. Just a Quick Update. November 21, 2010. Nothing major to report, but I wanted to update and let everyone know that all is well here in the good old US of A. We had a frustrating setback with our immigration process for Ben; the USCIS (formerly INS) actually. Hopefully, in a year or two we’ll be able to look back and say “Wow, that sucked, glad it’s over.”. For anyone who’s wondering, we do plan on having kids!
