Cudos to Kathy
I have to thank a very inspirational person in my life. Kathy Douglas, my mentor, our Launguage Arts facilitator. Thanks for all you've done, all you do, and all you will do. If it wasn't for you, I don't think I'd be anywhere near where I am with my Reading / Language Arts program. You've taught me more in the last 2 years than I've learned in all my education classes and in my 9 years of teaching. You encouraged me to go to the All Write! Conference that has inspired me to write, write, write! You've made me feel confident about things that I wasn't so sure about (ie. making a video on accountable talk). You've made me into a "mini-expert" in areas I never would have dreamed of. I enjoy working with you. My kids hold you in such high regard, as do I. Haley Elementary is incredibly lucky to have the opportunity to work with you! Educators don't get enough praise....SO...Cudos to you Kathy! You ROCK!

I SECOND THAT COMMENT- THANK YOU KATHY-
No Doubt. What a mentor that is always so willing to give anything a try once. A real risk taker. We need more people like her.
Okay, Girls, you did it. You made me cry before 8:00 in the morning! You all are amazing teachers. I am so blessed to be able to work with YOU! I always come away from your building with a smile on my face and my step a little lighter. Like my husband told me after he read your blog: "And you think you want to retire?" No way, with people like you all to work with and inspire me!
