Thus begins a new blogging adventure, and hoping all will benefit from the trials and errors of this experienced teacher. Education is a passion all too often lost in the day-to-day duldrums of classroom management and test prep. In this age of NCLB, educators must never forget that igniting the flame of curiosity is much more effective than simply filling the vessel with facts. So join me on this journey as we resurrect real teaching so that we can truly leave no child behind.
