Did I tell you I'm frugal? Don't like to spend money? Try to get the most bang for my buck? As a teacher, this works well for the district because I try not to spend money.
Last year, two of my students, made a podcast for the American Council of Teachers of Foreign Language podcast contest. And the won!!! We got $500 which I haven't completely used yet. Not district money, though they do think they can control what I do with it because it was made out to the school. I digress. But this is the latest installment:
I know, I'm such a geek. Really, it's the little things that I love. I bought 20 of these awesome dictionaries. I love how they look inside. They also have great examples of how to use some of the words in sentences.
Remember when your French teacher had dictionaries that look like these?
Not in my room, they won't. They have these awesome plastic like covers that look they will last longer than the paperback versions you see here. So, thank you to those girls for their hilarious video about why we need to learn languages!!! Did you click and see it yet? You've got to!
I grow things, I ride things, I bake things, I can things, I sew things and I make things. Sit with me on Aunt Mildred's Porch to witness this crazy journey I call my life and share the fun, laughter and utter foolishness that I come across from day to day. If you don't want to see pictures of my butt, you should just move along.

I love comments almost as much as I love summer. I reply to all comments except those ridiculous anonymous comments offering me dirty deeds and real estate. When you leave your comment, please make sure your own settings will allow me to reply to you. Nothing makes me sadder than replying to your comments and then realizing it’s going to the no-reply@blogger address!

J-The video is very cute. But I also like the video Erin posted on FB! LOL! Hope all is well with you. Maggie says hi. I haven't stopped by your blog for a while. I will have to catch up!
ReplyDeleteMaggie would like the unseasonably warm weather we're having right now. I cannot believe Erin put that video on FB. Every time I see the intro, it looks like I broke the chair! I think I might just put it up here for laughs, though.
