pen•ink•paper: Final Thoughts on Slicing
http://peninkpaper.blogspot.com/2011/03/final-thoughts-on-slicing.html
March 31, 2011. Final Thoughts on Slicing. Ruth asked us to reflect on this month of slicing. But most of all I love returning to see some of my old Slicing Friends every March- to catch up on the Quidditch competition or see how life is faring Down Under. I've missed Stacey this year, but look forward to next year when she rejoins that community that she and Ruth began. Thanks, guys. You're the best. Happy Slicing! PS You can visit me at my regular blog. 4:59 AM, April 01, 2011. 5:23 AM, April 01, 2011.

pen•ink•paper: Grading Avoidance
http://peninkpaper.blogspot.com/2011/03/grading-avoidance.html
March 29, 2011. We start the Research Paper grind tomorrow, when their first assignment comes in. For one of the examples, I suggested the topic of street art- graffiti gone upscale, which led me to explore lots of different art by Banksy. It's a nice controversial subject, and one of his renditions is shown above, the gleaner taking a break. So I stitched on my flower quilt and watched another couple of episodes of Doc Martin (BBC-TV) downstairs with my husband. Call Judy (friend and teacher colleague).

http://peninkpaper.blogspot.com/2011/03/spring-wildflowers.html
March 28, 2011. Today was filled with spring wildflowers- first found by my husband in the hills around us. Spring Break's over. Back to serious grading, the research paper, dealing with Mr. Plagiarism. But the flowers will await me in my brief moments of free time. Click to return to SOLSC- Day 28. Three more days to go until March Madness is finished for another year. 2:46 AM, March 28, 2011. We dont have flowers yet. Its still too cold here in New England. 3:01 AM, March 28, 2011.

the classroom composition: April 2011
http://educomposition.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 30, 2011. A shout out on the NASA site. My school has an education partnership with NASA, and our recent science fair is currently highlighted on their website. You can check it out here:. Http:/ wiki.nasa.gov/cm/blog/NES Teachers Corner/posts/post 1304087977891.html. There are times when pre-K can feel like a bit of an afterthought in an elementary school, and it made my day to see that our work was included in our submission to the NASA site. Yippee for us!

the classroom composition: visiting the frogs
http://educomposition.blogspot.com/2011/06/visiting-frogs.html
Wednesday, June 1, 2011. We had tadpoles in our classroom. They were my first as well as the children's, and I learned as much as they did. It turns out that it's a very short season in a frog's life when it swims like a fish and eats little bits of spinach. Then suddenly it's a froglet. And must be returned to the pond post haste, or it'll drown. I missed the chance to drop off our froglets. Back to the local nature center, from whence they came as eggs. Life, then released them back into the pond.
