Time to Learn and Grow

I'm back!!!  I went through a time where I thought I would just delete this blog.  I have enough trouble keeping my personal blog going.  I even deleted this blog for awhile, but thank goodness blogger lets you retrieve recently deleted blogs.  I really feel called to continue this blog.  Hopefully, I will do better than I have done in the past.  I feel that blogging is a way for me to learn, grow, and share with others.  I also deep down really enjoy blown when I have time. :)

I thought what better way to start back blogging but by spending some time learning and growing with some fellow bloggers.  I tell my coworkers that when I stop wanting to learn then it is time for me to get out of the education field.  I think this is where so many teachers fail; teaching is a profession where you have to want to learn and grow or you will fall behind.

This is why I am so excited about this collaborative blogger book study that I found that is starting soon!  I am really jealous that the bloggers that started this study just got back from a trip to the Ron Clark Academy.  I REALLY want to go there one day!

I have heard great things about Marcia L. Tate, but I have never taken the time to read one of her books.  I can't wait to see what I learn from this book and to start applying it to my first grade jungle room. :)

If you want to join along, buy the book and let's get started!  (I just ordered mine on Amazon!) You don't have to be a blogger.  You can participate by joining in the conversation by adding comments to the blog posts.

Here is the plan for the linky parties:
