A Steve By Any Other Name…
I have had a list of favorite names for as long as I can remember. The top name, number one in my heart, mind and soul, is Steve. (Not Stephen. Steve.) When I teach I like to star the names that stick out to me that I might want to add to my list. Here…

Tweens Today
I am thankful that the drama during my first teaching assignment this year was mild. I had students who in years past have caused MAJOR issues in the classroom, and today they were on their best behavior. There was some drama in my second to last class of the day. After lunch a young lady…

0 Score & 7 Years Ago
Grandpa Fish died seven years ago today. If our family was Korean we would gather and set a table of food and burn incense in his memory. We are not Korean. And we don’t have any memorial type traditions. So I think about him by myself. In years past I would visit his graveside, have…
