All apologies

I've noticed that the number of visitors has been increasing the last couple of weeks, as teachers are preparing for the new school year. I apologize that this happened to coincide with a complete drop off in my posting. I don't like to make excuses, but I have two good reasons (I think):

1. Teacher inservice started two weeks ago, and school starts Thursday, keeping me busy while trying to keep my regular life in order.
   
2. My laptop died last week, limiting my time online.

I have been storing up some ideas that I'll be sharing over the next few days. I've already been working on a new student survey and contemplating fresh approaches for this new first day of school. Stay tuned, and thank you for coming back!
