New Year, New Me...Not really



Some things will never change, I love teaching and I love my students. I do have a few goals this year though:

1) Continue to learn and try new things. As an avid pinterest user and Spanish teacher share follower I have hundreds of ideas everyday at my finger tips. But, it takes more than just pinning to make A difference in the classroom. As I become more and more familiar with my curriculum objectives, I plan to try things that are new and out of the box every unit and to reflect on them. TPRS, you are on my list!!!


2) I will continue to focus on the positives. I've always been a glass is half full kind of person. It is pretty easy with amazing friends, family and some of the best students a teacher can ask for, but as a teacher, I truly believe that optimism and a positive attitude is of the utmost importance.





3) I will continue to push myself outside of my comfort zone. One of the most influential people in my life always says that to promote growth it's a good idea to keep yourself comfortably uncomfortable. If life gets too cozy you are less likely to change. Let's face it, education is constantly evolving and so should we.

4) I will continue to lead and to be led when needed. Anything is possible when everyone is on the same page working towards the same vision.
