Wednesday

Today we focused on some procedures for wrapping up the end of the quarter. It's not my favorite type of "lesson" to teach because it doesn't involve language arts, but I guess in a way...it does. If we are unable to follow directions and learn procedures, life is ultimately much more complicated.

If I never learned to follow directions, I would have never learned how to cook some of my beloved Grandma Lottie's favorite family dishes. If I never learned to follow directions, I would have never learned how to complete my taxes (ok, Mr. Venekamp does that, but HE had to learn by following directions!) Finally, if I had never learned how to follow directions, I would have never learned how to create these really cool blog postings and remind my students about the "important stuff" from our day.

Next I'm going to learn how to post your wonderful memoirs and poetry onto this site, so I have many, many more directions to learn! (See...it never ends!) :c)

Fondly,
Mrs. V~

P.S. More tomorrow on some bonus opportunities with your writing portfolios. You can thank Gary B. for the idea (insert a shoutout to Gary here!)
