Teaching SCUBA Again!

I forgot to mention in my earlier post that my husband and I are going to start teaching SCUBA again. We've made many new friends who really want to learn and want us to teach them, so we renewed out liability insurance (you all know the importance of that!) and we will begin teaching again as soon as we have the materials we need.

If you're interested, keep your eyes posted on our new web-site that will be published shortly http://www.whillockscuba.com.

Winding Down School

7 more weeks of school left - at the Academy.
5 weeks of UNT and then I'll walk with my MEd!

Now that things are winding down on the school year, I'm going to try to get in the habit of posting in a regular basis!

My Web1 students are building web-sites for teachers here at the school. Some of them are really impressing me with their creativity. Some, who were not really interested in designing a web page, are finally having fun and seem to see what all the 'web design hoopla' is about. And finally.... one has decided to make Web Development their career choice. Wow! What a year it has been.

I really love watching these students grow throughout the year. They don't seem themselves changing the way we do. I only regret I couldn't spend this kind of time with my own children. I guess that's the 'catch-22' of teaching..... you're teaching someone else's children.
