I started my first blog in 2007. I wasn't sure what I was doing or even why I decided to blog, but I made the decision it was something I wanted to do. Since then I have had streaks where I write on a regular basis then other times where I barely blog at all. When I started in my current position two years ago I shifted my focus to sharing resources instead of sharing what I was passionate about. It was completely demoralizing to have one one person in 2 years tell me that they read my blog. I started writing less and less and nobody noticed. Writing became a chore and I resented it so I eventually stopped altogether.
Well I'm back! One of my professional goals this year is to be more reflective. I have committed to writing about what is going on in my classroom---successes and failures---at least twice a month. I have kept quite a bit bottled up over the last two years, so I will probably write more frequently than that. I am passionate about education and I am in a place where I feel like I am ready to start sharing my ideas.
