During school today my students were getting a little crazy. We had a sit-down chat about the natural consequences, wasting time, etc. When I asked their opinion on the matter, one student (who gets an A!) said, "Yeah, it also wastes Miss Maggie's time. I mean, last night she probably spent a couple of hours preparing for today and now it is a waste of her time. She could have done something else with her time." "You know what, " I reply," you are right! I didn't even think of that! I could have curled up with a nice cup of tea and a book." "Or your knitting! You need to work on your knitting too."
It is official, I'm a knitter!
In 2010, we Howe women took on a New Year's Resolution to knit, knit, knit. The goal was simple- to summon delightful creations from our fingers and to encourage, drag, and pull each other to new levels! In 2011 we decided to take on the task of cooking. We did not win that one. So in 2012 we are just kept on keeping on. What is in store for 2013? Hopefully a lot of new adventures!
lol. that is awesome. your students are smarter than my brokers!
