Hi Mr. Corvino!

Hi Mr. Corvino,

Thanks for logging on! You have officially made it to the BLOG world! We are having a nice time even though we get cranky and sleepy at about 5pm Seattle time. We have not gotten used to the time change, which is why I am up at 4:58am checking blog messages!

I watched the Green Bay/ Seattle game too and saw the snow. I should have turned back then...The schools are all closed here today because they had snow last night. There is hardly any on the ground by our standards, so we can't figure out what all the fuss is about. But, I guess they know what they are doing...

Today is the first big day and I am looking forward to going to a workshop called The Whole Educator. It's about how we address hiring people of color, retaining them, designing facutly meetings, and encourging diversity at the adult level when people are uncomfortable and unwilling. It should be interesting, to say the least. Then I am going to one called Starting Conversations That Matter in the Classroom.
Mrs. Euwer and I are splitting up because there are so many great workshops to go to. She is going to one on being a non person of color ally. It's really an incredible convention. You would love it. Nextyear it's in Boston and Pingry should send a bunch of teachers. I'll stay home, I promise...One of these days I'm going to get myself together to come to this convention and present something... hold onto your hat!

I will tell Mrs. Euwer you said hello. Her head is spinning, but she is really enjoying it. We are working hard trying to keep up with our blogs! You can acces her blog from mine. Be sure you blog onto the NEW blog and not the old one. It will say Mrs. SW Goes to Seattle at the top. Then on the side you can see a link to Mrs. E's blog. Her class can help you log on.

See you soon!
HSW
