Beyond the Blackboard: July 2014
http://bertschirae.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 3, 2014. While talking about the potential of our students, the speaker quoted Robert H. Schuller as saying, "Any fool can count the seeds in an apple. Only God can count all the apples in one seed.". Don't you want to be a part of this awesome opportunity? Wouldn't you like to plant a seed that could sprout into an orchard of apples, each one filled with more seeds to sow? This is not something that can be accomplished by just one person, but instead requires. If you are already on my sup...

Beyond the Blackboard: March 2015
http://bertschirae.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 23, 2015. Step into my classroom: life science at ECA, quarter three. Third quarter with my seventh graders has brought a slew of fun, exciting activities relating to the human body. Typically I teach this unit through group projects, but my smaller-than-average class size meant I had to change things up a bit. so everything I did this year, I did for the very first time! Thankfully I had Pinterest and TeachersPayTeachers to inspire me and provide lots of resources along the way. While stud...

Beyond the Blackboard: Running in the Rain
http://bertschirae.blogspot.com/2015/07/running-in-rain.html
Thursday, July 30, 2015. Running in the Rain. One of my favorite parts of running a race is seeing the photos taken by the race photographers. Usually I look absolutely terrible in these pictures but every once in a while there's a winner. Sometimes I'll even buy a few of the shots when they offer a sale months later. So it makes sense that I just now got around to buying my race photos from the RnR Madrid Half Marathon back in April. I looked something like this. Romans 5:3-5, The Message). Please join ...

Friday, May 15, 2015. Step into my classroom: pre-algebra at ECA, quarter four. I don't know about you but all these candy wrappers are making me crave sweets! Links to this post. Step into my classroom. Thursday, May 14, 2015. Spirit Week at ECA. Monday's theme was Pajamas.

It paid off, though, because I won the award for best staff costume that day! On Friday we wrapped up th...

Beyond the Blackboard: November 2014
http://bertschirae.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 20, 2014. This week I'm thankful for:. Good days with my 8th grade pre-algebra class. I've written about them a lot lately because they have been my most challenging class to teach. The majority of first quarter I felt like a total failure, but lately things have been looking up. Their attitudes have been improving and they have even said things like, "This is fun! And "Whoa, this is so easy! What are you thankful for this week? Links to this post. Monday, November 17, 2014.
