A Mathematics Teacher Attempts Writing

Writing is not a strong suit for me.  In fact, the English language and I often don't see eye to eye.  As a mathematics teacher, I find it is easier to write in abbreviations and symbols and harder to use complete words and full sentences.  My spelling is often atrocious and if I cannot find a word that I am looking for I make one up.  I realize I am giving math teachers a bad rap, not all of them are like me.  Heck, I don't even know if I even fit into the math teacher stereotype. However, I digress.  My point to the rambling is to say: This is completely out of character for me.

So why am I attempting to create a blog in the first place? Honestly, it started as an assignment for a class.  But, I have always been curious about blogs and didn't know how to even get into the blogging world.  When I began the class, I was hoping to gain insight into an area of the internet I had yet to explore.  Instead I was shown an entire universe.  I didn't realize that just anyone could create a blog.  Educators, parents, students, entrepreneurs, nature enthusiasts, etc. Amazing!

I am planning on dedicating this blog to the education aspect of my life. My teaching, my students, and even my own learning are all up for grabs.  I don't know how often I will post or what my topics will be but let's take the journey together!  Thank you for your support and hopefully my grammar won't make you jump out the window.
