Okay, I am going to try to use this space as way to take notes on my research, document my life as a literacy coach/AP English teacher, and celebrate/vent about my life as a new mom.
In copying my super-talented friend Julia, I hope to post a photo sequence of three images every week that document life at work, life as a student, and life as a mom. To follow Julia's goal of taking one photo per day for the year 2008 check out her blog at http://www.juliavandenoever.blogspot.com/ Or hire her! She's crazy talented and took great photos of me pregnant. She's coming to NYC in June, so book her now.
We'll see how this works...

that's my name in scratchitti!
thoughts on being a mama, transitioning from urban school teacher to community college professor, processing life and death, how to be a good friend and wife, the conundrum of race, and this crazy lovable city i live in.
how i'm feeling
that's my name in scratchitti!
my split personality
This is my personal blog to process my life and all that comes with it. I have a professional blog (one about teaching) at www.readwriteteach.org. If you're a teacher, please check it out, pass it along, and give me some good, critical feedback. xo.
