Stepping Back

I have been doing this blog for 16 years now and I think it is time to take a step back. I've been trying to blog Monday through Friday every week except for holidays.

Now I find myself really hunting for things to write about that might be relevant to new and struggling teachers. I don't want to write stuff that is just fluff for the sake of writing.

I'm going to continue writing in this blog when I feel like I have something I want to share. I might find an educational resource that is worth sharing or a technique that I find that others might enjoy learning.

I'm going to continue to write about our travels because I feel like traveling is part of my life-long learning.

If you have a question or need advice on a specific topic, please feel free to reach out to me and I'd be glad to write a blog post about it.

Even though I won't be posting Monday through Friday, I still plan on keeping a presence here. In the meantime, I want to continue traveling, reading, gardening. knitting, and learning.

Pat,

I can totally identify with the challenge of finding topics of value for your blog. I've been writing the Blue Skunk for 18 years and after retiring four years ago, I have struggled to create posts I hope would be of value to my readers (both of them?) From practical advice on school libraries and educational technology, the post have (de)volved into much more personal matters (travel, family, retirement, aging) and commentary on more general issues (without becoming too political.) I try to post once a week now. Continue posting to Successful Teaching - if for no other reason to amuse yourself!
