I was reading Darrel Branson’s list of Videos for Educational Change and it brought to mind my first clip that I saw at an inservice. It is called Cat Herders.

“You see the movies. You hear the stories. I’m living a dream. Not everyone can do what we do. I wouldn’t do anything else. It ain’t an easy job…. ” Cat herding is just like teaching. This quote runs true for teaching.

Are you living the dream like me ???????

This is my first post. I’m finally entering the blosphere. I’ve been reading a few blogs for the past couple of months and I commented on a few interesting posts. Now it is time for me to enter the blogging world.

For the first time in a staff meeting my Principal shared this amazing and insightful video with the staff. The point that I particularly took a liking too is the comment about how schools educate children from the shoulders up and a bit to the left. How true!! The implications that this has on my teaching and my classroom is profound. I must make changes and I feel that Technology and the inquiry learning process is the answer.
