You Tube Tuesday

I first heard this song as I was flipping through the channels last week and landed on Glee.  What an awesome voice! 

Adele--Rolling in the Deep





This one is dedicated to my students who are participating in the District Reading Rumble Competition today.  I'm so competitive that I HATE going to competitions and having to watch--I go crazy.  Last year we managed to take 1st place, so there's a lot of pressure this year on the team for a repeat performance.  The teacher side of me wants to tell them to do their best and have fun, but the competitive side of me wants to rip their heads off if they miss a question.  (See what I mean?)  Oh well, it's out of my hands now. Blah!

Happy Cinco De Mayo!


While many of us in the States are celebrating the 5th of May by eating Mexican food, part of my family is in Greece celebrating my brother's wedding.  Now if only the preacher would get out of the way!
Congratulations Adam and Yulia!

YouTube Tuesday...

I really needed to hear the message in this song today.  It's Cloverton's God Help Me To Be.  I hope you enjoy it too.

Teacher Tribute: Keith Thomas - ATEMS High School - Abilene News Story - KTXS Abilene

For those of you who have been following for awhile, you know that I lived in Abilene, Texas a few years ago and was a librarian at one of the local middle schools. My dad, Keith Thomas, is an engineering/robotics teacher at the newest high school there.  Recently, one of his students nominated him for a Teacher Tribute.  Click the link below to see the news coverage.
