Items on my Amazon Wishlist

 A Sampling in the Order of Most Recently Added:


  1. Several books about strategies for teaching content categories to students who are English Language Learners. 
  2. Texts on developing early literacy.
  3. Text on assessing early reading.
  4. Rubick's cube. Jack's record is a minute thirty, he thinks he could improve with a different cube.
  5. Tons of children's books. Eve Bunting makes several appearances. I have a weakness for children's literature.
  6. A bottle of self tanner (Tan in a Can) 
  7. Bright knee socks for a ten year old girl
  8. Japanese noodle bowls. For serving Ramen
  9. Bento boxes
  10. A few Ann Patchett titles
  11. Shoes for a two year old girl
  12. Miniature desktop catapult

Due to recent events outside of my control, I won't be needing items 1 through 3 in the foreseeable future. I can't give up the dream of beautiful brown skin (see item #6), even though I am perpetually pale and freckled. The pimples seem to have subsided, though. Item #7, paired with a skirt, is Stella's signature fashion style.

etc. etc.

I feel heartbroken about the recent events outside of my control. I love school, and I am a great student. I am going to be a dynamite teacher.

someday.
