Podcast...

Although our assignment for creating our own podcast isn't due for another week, I'm a little panicky.  I really want to create something meaningful that I can use in my classroom, but can't seem to come up with an idea.  I've looked online for some ideas, but so far all I can find are ideas that are geared to older students and not elementary.  I also don't just want to lecture, but to make my podcast entertaining for my classmates and for my students. to listen to  If not what's the point?

Stay tuned, hopefully you'll hear back from me shortly with  a grand idea! :)

Another Milestone...

Last Sunday, Jack hit another milestone.  Every milestone he has completed has brought me joy and pride.  This current milestone brought me to tears. We transitioned Jack from his high chair to a booster seat at our dining room table.  He's been in a booster seat before at restaurants, but seeing him sitting at our table, I admit I got a little misty eyed.  I'm getting chocked up just thinking about it again.  What is wrong with me???  I told Bryan about my feelings when he was sitting at the table playing with a puzzle and he admitted that it bothered him a little as well.  I think a part of it is that high chair has been in our dining room since Jack started eating solids at 6 months when he was just a baby.  When. He. Was. Just A. Baby. I (we) have suddenly realized our baby is no longer a baby, but turning into a little boy.  How and when did that happen?!
