It’s been a bit since I have shown up in your inbox, right? This year has been quite an adjustment for me! Going back to work full time when you have been your own boss for 10+ years, has proved to be an adjustment. Something had to give – I guess Teaching Heart gave! Anyhow, […]

Teachers – Blogging the Nice Way?
Just read this article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110216/ap_on_hi_te/us_teacher_suspended_blog which is about “A high school English teacher in suburban Philadelphia who was suspended for a profanity-laced blog in which she called her young charges “disengaged, lazy whiners” and some.” I feel that this teacher made a big mistake even if it was legally an okay thing to do.
