My 5 Reasons to Blog



Passions and Ponderings is my first attempt at blogging. Thanks to my EdTech friends for encouraging and challenging me to dive into the 21st Century. Needless to say, I am terrified, yet excited.


I often ponder about my passions, and these have become my 5 reasons to blog...


  1. Teaching. This is my chance to document my thoughts and tinkerings in 6th grade English Language Arts and World History.


  1. Learning. I am a lifelong learner. I enjoy reading the latest research on best practices and I’m a workshop/conference addict. I can’t wait to share my latest learning experiences, and the thoughts and tinkerings that have made their way into my classroom.


  1. Food and Fitness are a daily battle in my life. Here are my challenges and successes as I fight to balance my love of cooking and eating, with my attempt to remain healthy and fit with walking, Zumba, swimming, and yoga. So far, food is winning this battle.


  1. Travel. I am fascinated by the world, history, cultures, traditions, stories, and ethnic foods. Darn you, Andrew Zimmern and Anthony Bourdain, for igniting my passion and curiosity to eat my way around the world! China, Japan, Palau, Hawaii, Denmark, Sweden, and Canada are just a few of the places where I’ve had my own culinary adventures.


  1. Inspirations are the quotes, art, music, places, people, events, and stories that fuel my passions and cause me to ponder about the fascinating world that we live in.


Stay tuned for more posts on Passions and Ponderings.
