Quotes of the Day

The arts help children learn to say what cannot be said. When children are invited to disclose what a word of art helps them feel, they must reach int their poetic capacities to find the words that will do the job. -Elliot Eisner

A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day. " In English," he said, " a double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative." A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."

You must not know about me...

...so yes. I listened to that song on the radio this afternoon. I believe it is called "irreplacable" and is by an R&B female artist of whom I cannot tell you her name because I don't know it. However, I think that lyric is a fitting title for a first blog post because you must not know about me if you have to read my blog.

Sadly, this blog will mostly enlighten you about the wonderful process of becoming a teacher, and that fantastic profession I will enter rather shortly... so enjoy, if you dare.
