Steve Martin

via the goodie life

I've been listening to Born Standing Up by Steve Martin this week and I really like hanging out with him in my car. Next on my libary que is An Object of Beauty. A few years ago Shauna had me read Shop Girl and I really dug the author side of Steve Martin. I've been meaning to watch The Jerk for awhile now, so that's next. Really what I'm trying to say that you should hang out with Steve Martin too.

Anyone want to Three Amigos with me? Top 5 favorite movie.

Reflections in teaching: Year 2

+the importance of playing with them
+the magic of Shel Silverstein, Dallas Clayton, and Dr. Seuss
+reading and singing and dancing brings us all together
+patience is practiced
+knowing what you can control, and what you have to let go (to stay sane)
+how much kids need attention.
+instill confidence
+inspire creativity
+the impact of my mood/preparation/attitude on the student's behavior
+how much they LOVE when I talk real with them and when I'm goofy or surprising
+teaching at a school with a solid staff, a perfect teaching team, and an incredible Principal will make it an easy decision to teach another year. Hello year 3.
