It's March. It's still below freezing in the mornings with the wind chills. It's getting old, fast.
But. The sunsets. Oh the sunsets. They're the icing on the cold cake. Look at this - unedited stunner.
The Random:
Random, but amazing. In December, we had did a "friendly letter" unit in Writer's Workshop. One of my kiddos is a figure skater and he wrote to Scott Hamilton. Well, Scott Hamilton responded - personally! He sent an autographed picture and hand written note - amazing!!
I had seen an idea on pinterest ages ago about using "Twister" in the classroom - this one idea had it being used as a multiplication game. I knew my class would love it - and oh did we! It was a fun excersise for their minds and bodies and we all had a good chuckle over using the game as a review before our unit test (which they rocked!).

Absolutely stunning sky! What a treat it must have been for your student when Scott replied to... wow!
You are one cool teacher --making maths fun with Twister. =)
We had a sky very similar the other evening - it was nearly striped with pink and blue. I am continually impressed with Scott Hamilton's character - he is, and has always been, a class act.
Stunning sky - you know I'm a sucker for the pink clouds. Have not seen those in quite some time. Beautiful!!!

That's really cool that Scott Hamilton wrote back!! I love him so much! I remember going to see Stars on Ice when he was doing a routine to Figaro and did that back flip. So awesome.
Loved the twister... and wonderful shot of sunset!
