Take a close look at the human brain in the this photo. I taught my students: “Your brain is neurologically unique.”
As a teacher it became my life’s work to uncover their unique learning styles and open the doors for their optimal learning.

Nelson Mandela once wrote:
"What counts in life is not the mere fact that we lived...
it is what difference we have made to the lives of others
that will determine the significance of the life we lead."

"Sometimes it is the very people
who no one imagines anything of
who can do the things no one imagined."
--Alan Turing

Framed over the entrance to my classroom:
"Forget the struggling world
and every trembling fear.
Here all are kin...
and here the rule of life is love.”

--Irving Stone, 1947. (If students didn't see it overhead on the way in, they would come to feel it on their way out.)

CHAPTER 10: DREAM HOME (in progress)




When I first thought of my dream home, I already had an image of what it would look like.  I bet you do too.

This is how to go from where you are now to the home of your dreams in 10 steps.

1. Google the terms: 
Buy home 
country 
near  _________ (the mountains, country side, ocean view, in the woods, ranch, lake view, near a farm, forest view, vineyard or ski area.) 

For example:  buy home United States near forest.  

           


2.  Click on images. Browse the photos. Take 10 minutes, select a home of your choice. (You will have much more time later.)  

3. Take a screenshot of your home choice, crop if necessary. Save to your desktop.

4. Post your dream home photo on a new website.  Go to:  Blogger.com to start your new website.

5. Click on:  CREATE YOUR BLOG.  Google will give you a free website but you need a Gmail account
