Introduction

Well, I have been thinking about starting an education blog for some time, and what better time than the present?  There is just so much good stuff out there, I'm guessing it would make sense for me to utilize the space I have on the web to share what I know . . . I suppose it is up to YOU to determine whether I really know what I am talking about, right?

That being said, I'll just introduce myself.  My name is Heather.  I am a reading specialist in a middle school in a suburb about 40 miles west of Chicago.  In my spare time I perform, which explains the picture.  I enjoy life and all that it has to offer me.  I am a mom of two beautiful children, have a wonderful husband, and I enjoy what I do for a living - teach.

The purpose of this blog is to share my life in education, how my personal life fits in with it, and what I am learning about how things are changing in this new world of education . . .
