I'm enjoying TN!!!

I made it to TN tonight around 7:30...Heather T and I have already been shopping :-) Check out her new outfit for the wedding we're going to tomorrow:

THANK YOU!!!

I was honored to represent Williamsport as a finalist for 2010 Pennsylvania Teacher of the Year! My students, colleagues, family, & friends were super supportive & excited for me. It really takes all of us working together to make it happen though...so thanks to all of you :-)

The 12 PA Teacher of the Year Finalists for 2010 (they were all jealous of my nice Millionaire shirt)!

My mom & aunt with me at the Capitol


Mom & I spiffed up for a nice dinner & dessert at the Governor's Mansion (no, he wasn't there...I think he may have been at the Eagles vs. Redskins game in D.C.)!

Mr. Elliott, me, Nuria Hunter (my student presenter), & Dr. Kelley after the awards ceremony.

One of the many cool prizes we received! (I plan on allowing a student each period sit in this chair....afterall, it's because of my students that I'm able to be a teacher)!

Period 1 students ready to devour another of my prizes!

This is what 5 lbs of chocolate looks like!

This is what was left of the 5 lbs. of chocolate after a day in G202! (my students saved me 12,000 calories by helping me eat this) :-)

Roast beef was good...

Teshawna said dinner was de-lish last night :-)

SPEED MONSTERS....

Speed monsters are taking over G202! We are racing today...typing all the letters we've learned so far (minus home row) in a minute to see who can type the most.

RE TOUCHING (the letter we know)
RE TOUCHING
RE TOUCHING
RE TOUCHING....


AUSTIN (PERIOD 1) CHOMPING AT THE KEYS!


KYLIE (PERIOD 2) LOOKS HAPPY TO BE WEARING THE HAT...BUT TOOK IT OFF...THINK IT SLOWED HER DOWN! BY THE WAY, SHE BEAT MY SCORE OF 94 GWAM...SHE GOT 101 GWAM! SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDY :-)


CHEYANNE (PERIOD 3) IS SO QUICK ON THE KEYS SHE SAYS SHE DIDN'T NEED THE HAT TO TYPE QUICKER....SO MR. FAUSNAUGHT WORE IT FOR HER!!!


BAYLE (PERIOD 4) LOOKS THRILLED TO BE WEARING THE HAT DOESN'T SHE???


AUSTIN (PERIOD 6) COULDN'T BELIEVE HE WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO WEAR THE HAT!



ISAAC (PERIOD 7) SWEARS WEARING IT BACKWARDS MADE HIM EVEN FASTER!?!?!

Roast Beef....

Teshawna made me laugh this morning when I asked if there was anything else anyone wanted to talk about in advisory period....she told me that she was having roast beef tonight for dinner (and also shared what she had last night for dinner)!!! Ironically, I also had roast beef tonight for dinner...and mmmmmmmmmmm...it was good :-) How was yours Teshawna???

SPIRIT WEEK...

This week is spirit week because of homecoming on Friday. Check out these SPIRIT photos:


Second period (minus bio lab students who are @ lab today)...ALL sporting the cherry & white today :-)

A new week is upon us...and it's PROGRESS REPORT WEEK, which means we're already half way through our first marking period together! Can you believe it???
