From Amish to MBA
I grew up Amish, and I wrote a short story called Amish Memories. Growing up I used to do the strawberry sales and baked goods from the back of the buggy or the side of the road and even carried the baked good to the neighbors and as a young 5 year old started charging $3.25 for the pies instead of $3.00 that my aunts asked me to charge for them. That was my first entrepreneurial efforts, to, instead of relying on tips, I was now charging a delivery fee.

A New Approach to Reading Instruction
Do you know what morphemes are? Morphemes are the smallest units of meaning in a language. Even though you may not know that term, I am sure you know morphemes if you are fluent in a language. In English, common morphemes such as <er>, <ed>, and <ing> are used frequently. Some morphemes, also known as suffixes, can change the tense of the word. For example <jump> turns into <jumped> or <jumping> and the tense of the verb is changed. Those are called inflectional suffixes. Other suffixes such as <er> change the grammatical category of the word such as <teach> (which is the verb) changes to <teacher> (which is a noun) when you add <er>. So why are morphemes important for reading instruction? Well, unlike phonics patterns, morphemes are both extremely consistent and always convey meaning. Now, this is not to say that phonics is not important, because it very much is but it has been used in isolation instead of in conjunction with morphology as it should be. English is a morphophonemic language which means that it uses both morphemes and phonemes.

Understanding Opportunities For Attending College
High school graduates years ago like myself, never thought of attending college to work a good job as an adult. Once online college began, understanding the programs and knowing the increased rate for multiple property rentals or mortgages, and car loans most definitely supports my opinion on why education is important for any career field. Let's start from the beginning!

Online Learning vs In -Classroom Learning
Online Schooling vs In - Classroom Learning The year 2020 has been quite the doozy for everyone. No one ever expected to have their kids be at home learning, or even for that matter no one expected to have to virtually work from home. Online schooling sounds nice and easy when you think about it, but experience says otherwise. The ability to sleep in and complete schoolwork in your pajamas is quite fabulous. But, they do not tell you that kids do not get the same kind of experience as they would in the classroom. The teachers are having to split explaining in one meeting each day everything that they are teaching in the classroom, that is hard for both the teacher and the student. Students are struggling to understand what they are learning online because they are not able to be in a classroom where the teacher is right there to explain what is being taught. The classroom experience has been easier for many students because the teacher is able to explain everything in person versus emailing the student and parent. As a parent myself, my daughter has done better when she went back to in classroom learning than online learning. It also is something that depends on home life because some parents or guardians do not have the ability for the child to learn at home so they do have to send them to school. Even with COVID-19 I think all kids miss out on socializing with other kids when they have to be online learning. It is not fair to the kids but at the same time as a parent we will do what the school needs us to do whether it is online learning or in class learning.
