Knit Hat

Hey, I'm attempting to get the PDF of the hat up and running. It's quite confusing! I should have it up by the end of the week.

This is why the Cumberland below Wolf Creek dam is the neatest.

Beaver Dam


Lodge, ok, I know, not that the critters are going to dam the cumberland-that'd be crazy for any creature to attempt. It'd fail.

Right?

What I want to know is how she can stand this icy water.
Do you know how cold this stuff is?

Wolf Creek Dam





I know that it probably won't fail, but still-the cracks give one pause.

Evacuation Plan


You know it's slightly nerve wracking to have an evacuation plan at your campground because there's a possibility that the dam will fail and everyone will have to escape the deluge.

It's from Sweeden as an advertisement for their "Be Good Elf Soap".

I'd love to have the ad for my classrom.

Me at BI 2007


I know people, folks.

Rick LaVoie! How cool is this? I feel all, you know, teachery.
My friend, Kathy, wanted her picture with the keynote of the National CEC (Henry Winkler).
Me, I about had a heart attack when I knew I was going to get to meet Rick LaVoie! And for those of you who don't know: He is a leader in our field. Well, more of a path maker. He has taught teachers about teaching for many years and his videos are still the hallmark for what good teaching is all about. He inspires teachers to teach students rather than subjects. His information on how to work with our students with learning disabilities has been so influential that teachers use his terms almost as if they are a part of the collective subconscious. I've been reading his stuff for as long as I can remember and I've always wanted to meet him.

He's the person who inspired me to look at student behavior not as a conscious decision on the part of the student, but more of a lack of knowledge.

Yep, he's that influential.

Just so you know, this picture will be up in my classroom. This makes me kind of cool.
