There's a first time for everything

Setting up this blog was an interesting experience.  Apparently I had dabbled in Blogging back in 2005 and completely forgotten about it, so when I tried to log into Blogger there was a pleasant surprise waiting for me.  7 comments on the 3 posts I had made, 5 of which were advertisements! I was so excited to see that 7 people had actually read something I wrote, only to be disappointed.  I'm sure this time I will have more commitment to this blog. 

Setting up this new blog was not a whim.  I am taking a course and  one of the assignments was to create a blog.  So for this semester at least, the majority of my posts will be related to my new endeavor. 

I am ready for a change.  5 years in the classroom working with special education students who are struggling readers has taught me a lot.  I want to help them succeed and I've come to the realization that mentoring and helping them find their niche is what I want to do.  I've decided that I want to be a modern day school media specialist.  I want to help the teachers but more so I want to help the students develop into life-long readers. 

So here I am...my first post of my new blog and I'm sure with many more to follow.
