My First Time

So this is the first post on the new blog. I guess I should answer some questions about the purpose of me blogging. I want to be able to begin to document my ideas, thoughts, and other miscellaneous minutia that comes out of my mind. I want to begin to be a reflective professional and look at what I am doing in my life and classroom. I want to maximize my circle of influence. I think and hope this is the easiest way to accomplish these desires. So, to anyone who may be following enjoy the journey.
