Goals and Summer Classes

 Hello and welcome beautiful people!



Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog😊. Today is Monday, June 29th, 2026 and I spent the weekend doing some classwork as I am taking two courses from now until the end of July. 

Check out my intros that I did for both my classes:

BioPoem and Egypt (MDSK 5402)

Covid-19 and Book Fairs (MDSK 6252)

In on of my videos, I list Covid-19 and online classes as an area where my needs weren't met as a student because I prefer face-to-face interaction and the socialisation aspect of the classroom environment. It is difficult to emulate that online as people could be faking it just to fit in or for appraisal. On the other hand, having taken more classes online then in person, I like the fact that I can work ahead and at my own pace-- I also like taking classes during the summer as oppose to in the fall and spring as they are shorter in length. 

Needless to say, my goal for these to classes are to continue to get As and to stay on top of my readings. 

As for the blog, be sure to check out last weeks posts (Intro, Casual Outfits, A Teacher's Backpack, Current Summer Reads, and Summer Solstice) as there will be a continuing pattern for the summer as I look to fine tune a few things before the kids come back to school at the end of August. I hope that I can continue to learn how to best integrate technology, specifically blogging, into my classroom next year. 


Below are some short videos pertaining to books:

Hello and welcome beautiful people!      Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog 😊 . Today is Monday, June 22nd, 2026, I'm sitting at Vavela Cafe (not sponsored), and I just wrapped up my first graduate course in over two years and in typical me fashion, I finished with a 96%. It could have been a solid 100% but then there wouldn't have been room to grow and improve, which is something I hope to continue to teach my students-- we learn more from our failures rather than our successes.      One of the goals that I have for this blog is to integrate blogging and technology in a healthy way into my classroom. I will be teaching Social Studies this upcoming fall, something that I am extremely excited about as I double majored in History (with a concentration on North American History), and Africana Studies (focused on the African diaspora pre and post Atlantic Slave Trade).  Another goal that I have is to build an online presence so that I can...

Casual Outfits

     Hello and welcome beautiful people!      Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog😊.  Today is Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026, I just finished brunch and I've been up since 7am😴 . I'm excited that today's topic is casual outfits because I think, as a teacher, this is a way for us to express our individuality and show the kids that:           1 . we can have fun with our outfits and,           2 . we know how to put it on.       Some of my students this year had some nice graphic tee's that they would pair with their jeans or jean shorts and their timberlands, and others would come in with the cleanest pair of Jordan's (only to dirty them during HAC😑) but they'd be colour coordinated and I would love it. It may be different in other states and in other school districts, but here in Charlotte, for teachers, our day for casual dress (jeans, joggers) is Friday. Chec...

A Teachers Backpack

Hello and welcome beautiful people!     Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog😊. Today is Wednesday, June 24th, 2026, I spent all morning running around the city for my dog when I really just want to be reading my book, A House of Flame and Shadow 😩. Nevertheless, today I will be sharing what I kept in my backpack this year. It changed slightly from when I was in university but for the most part I feel as thought every student has what I am about to list in their bag. Before I start, I want to preface and say that I am not sponsored by any of these brands (though it is a thought and potential goal) and any views or opinions are my own.     Alright, for starters, I have had this backpack since my junior year of high school and she has been holding it down ever since. She cute, she stylish, and she adds a pop of colour to any outfit, especially the winter outfits when those become seeped in blacks, greys, and neutrals. I haven't really had the need to re...
