This has been a greaaaaaaaat week and it's only Tuesday! My teammate Em and I presented for the very first time together at a conference called High Aims on Monday. We presented on Writing Celebrations. Do you have them in your classrooms? We hit home on the big ones the , but more importantly to us.... the small ones. When we started I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest and I was going to puke! As the presentation went on it finally settled down and everything went smoothly. We will be presenting again in December and January for SDE on Oral Storytelling, so if you're in Columbus for a conference, I hope you'll come and see us!!!!!
Then today, the girls, myself and our friend hit the road on The Donut Trail. Yes, you read that right, The Donut Trail. It was uh-mazing!!!!! It took us about 2 1/2 hours to hit 8 spots (the girls and I were able to hit one when we we to Miami University for our swimming championships). Here's how it works...
You go to one of the spots on the trail and you pick up your passport. Buy a donut, or not. Get your passport stamped and then head to the next spot. You do not have to complete the trail in one day like us, you can do it over time. When you finish, all you have to do is turn in your passport and you get a Donut Trail Shirt!!!!!!!! We came home with a box of donuts because while I love donuts.... 8 would be excessive! :) At each spot we bought a donut or two..... maybe more. hahaha and we are looking forward to eating them the rest of the week. So if you're every in the Cincinnati area..... The Butler County Donut Trail is a MUST DO!!!!!!!!!
