I’m playing school age teacher for the rest of the summer. Our school age teacher quit. So, I moved up front and I’m trying to get some semblance of control in that room. The first thing I talked to them about was not wanting rules, but rather guidelines. And that I thought one of the…
It’s International Cat. Actually, here in the Marks house, everyday is International Cat Day. Everyone knows that cats rule the world. We humans are here only to serve our feline overlords.

Maybe I’ll do it when I’m on vacation. The Photos app on the iPhone does this thing where it creates slideshows…
I recently finished the summer bulletin board in my classroom. As usual, the babies painted. My theme was summer. The saying I chose was “Summer Is Flip Flopping Fun”.
