First, I have to tell you...Good morning Leigh Ann! First, I have to tell you that I LOVE the image you chose. I think you always have to do what's right for you. If there's one thing I've learned in my years of teaching, it's that there really isn't one right way to do most things. So, I say, look to yourself for guidance and decide what works for you. If it stresses you out, that's a sign to not do it. If it brings you joy, go for it. :) I want to join in the book blogs you mentioned. I was too tired to blog last night, but I'm hoping that I can get on board next week.<br /><br />On another note, did you have your kids do OLW? I would love to connect with other classes who are doing it. Can you email me at juliaajohnson at yahoo dot com? I'd love to touch base with you.

For me, I decided to take a year off from that. <br /><br />That being said, I do talk to my students about goals, but encourage them to make them realistic. We also revisit them this week and readjust if needed. And the non-fiction challenge Allyson does is completely fun. I think you pick the challenges that work for you and move on from there! Enjoy!
