I started following blogs on Blogger a year or two ago. Just simple things like friends' blogs or blogs about TV shows that I like. Then it dawned on me during the school year that I bet tons of teachers blog about ideas they have, resources they've found, and things that work in their classroom. When I started searching I was amazed! So many awesome teachers willingly sharing plans, games, resources, and anything else you might need for your classroom. Most of the blogs I follow are elementary school teachers but their ideas can be easily adapted for my eighth graders.

It was through those posts that I found out about a book study "group" (blog) of teachers who will be reading and studying two books through a new blog they have created. I have heard many of the bloggers I follow mention "The Daily Five" (one of the books) so I read the reviews on amazon.com and found a few people who said they had adapted it for middle and high school. I am not a confident English teacher so I decided to join in the fun. I am super excited and can't wait to read the books, get ideas, and collaborate with teachers all over the United States. :O)
