And Patrick is right.  I am always asking parents how I could make BSIS At Home better, but I haven’t asked the kids.  If kids have ideas, like Patrick did, let me know!

I hate that I am not taking time to do this daily!  I love writing here.  I simply need to set my priorities.  Last weekend I went to see my sweet grand children.  They are just the best.  I miss being able to see them often.  aaaa
I spent Monday at Clemson at meetings explaining in more detail what is expected from our standards.  It is so essential that we teach the standards.  I wish we had time to teach a wide variety of things – expose children to more and more concepts, ideas, theories.  But, realistically, with the short amount of time we have to teach, it really is critical that we teach standards.  I realize that seems obvious, but it still is easy to slip back into old methods simply because we are comfortable with those habits.   I hope this makes sense.  I am falling asleep as I write!
