I’m late getting started, all this snow took out the power yesterday. In the country it takes awhile to get it back on!

18 of my 27 fourth grade students have also signed up for the challenge, along with my daughter and son.
Thanks for challenging us to live a writing life.
So excited to take part again this year!! http://everydaysnapshots.blogspot.com/2009/03/slice-of-life-story-challenge-2009-day.html
Day One–how to sift through the moments to find just one? A good challenge!

So weird, even though I linked to today’s post, the link is sending people to a post from last year’s challenge. I’m going to try again:

Here is my slice.

This is the first time I have taken part in a writing challenge. I hope I can keep up. This is my first post.

My daughters and I participated last year and it was a wonderful experience. We are back this year for another exciting writing adventure together.
Here is my slice for today:

Thanks again for this challenge!

Here’s my first entry. Thanks for this challenge!

I’m in for the challenge.

I’d heard of the Slice of Life challenge, but now intend to try it for myself. Sounds like fun.
Here’s my first entry:

I’m embracing much today, and with delight. A new month begins. All the little white boxes of the March calendar hang on the wall in front of me. Each one full of spring’s potential.
A new challenge begins with this Slice of Life writing. I’m looking forward to this because it is a challenge and I will be pushed to write. I want to experience what my students must feel when the expectation to write sits in front of them.
A new week begins tomorrow and it is a full five day week. No holidays or interruptions. What learning and growth will we accomplish in our little classroom community?
Let’s begin.
I’m looking forward to this exercise. I tend to look at the forest. It might be nice to see a few trees up close for a change

Wow, how great to see such a long list! Can’t wait to come back and read later. I’ve posted today, but I’m not sure it ‘counts’ as a slice of life. It’s more the anger I woke up with after listening to the news the morning. Maybe I’ll post something more ‘slice-like’ later.

I do not consider myself a writer but I suppose that is the perfect motivation to take on this challenge. I had a ton of fun jumping in today. Here is my Slice.

My Slice is up at http://365in2009.wordpress.com/2009/03/01/march09slice01/. It took a LOT for me to get out there in the snow this morning. Usually, once I know I’m going to be in on a weekend, it is nearly impossible to get me out… but not today!
I’m up for a challenge! Here’s my first (of 31 I hope!) post. Thanks for doing this.

This promises to be exciting! Will be back later with my link!
I eagerly embrace the opportunity offered by Stacey and Ruth in their Slice of Life Writng Challenge. I look forward to sharing and discovering as I undertake this writing journey through the month of March…
And away we go!
