Game Night

I love games! Board games, card games, dice games. Action games, strategy games, adventure games, puzzle games. Worker-placement, dice-drafting, roll and move, card-drawing, cooperative play. I love it all! I love that games bring people together (and temporarily tear them apart when things get really competitive). I also love giving recommendations. With that in mind,Continue reading “Game Night”

the next step

At first it was just a whisper. I was reading a book about showing the love of Christ to others, and God whispered, “Missions.” Then I read a book about boldly pursuing great things for God, and God urged, “Missions.” Then I read a book about a girl who moved to Africa to live amongContinue reading “the next step”

Ten Favorites

Here are ten of my favorite books (possibly my top ten) in alphabetical order. I also included secondary recommendations of books that are similar to each favorite. These secondary recommendations are clearly not exhaustive and only include books that I have read. A quick google search will no doubt reveal much more. Enjoy!

quarantined? write a post!

It’s been a month since I have posted anything. At first, I was really frustrated with myself. Then I came to accept that it wasn’t for lack of desire, but a true lack of time.

How to Take on Tests with Confidence – Part 2

4. Look at the whole test. In the Classroom I have three types of students when it comes to initial test reaction. The first group of students stare at their tests with a look of utter betrayal. How dare this test infringe upon their pleasant day of social interaction… that just happens to take placeContinue reading “How to Take on Tests with Confidence – Part 2”

How to Take on Tests with Confidence – Part 1

In school, I was always a good test taker. I remember once reading somewhere that the educational system was designed to make more teachers. The students that did the best in school were best fit to become teachers. I don’t think that’s entirely true, but it worked out for me. Unless you’re weird (like me)Continue reading “How to Take on Tests with Confidence – Part 1”

buttercrawl

I’m fairly certain I couldn’t have come up with a grosser title. Speaking of gross, I think I know why a butterfly becomes a butterfly. Because in its previous stages, it was called egg, larva, and pupa. If it was lucky, caterpillar. But I digress… Because soaring is worth the struggle… Imagine a caterpillar, crawlingContinue reading “buttercrawl”
