Last week, Andrew "helped" me sort 8 giant bins of materials I collected over 12 years of teaching music. We had a little fun, well, mostly just me. We got the pile down from 8 bins to 4 and a couple of tiny boxes. Can't help but ask myself why I have kept and been dragging around every single piece of crappy choral music from reading sessions since 1996. Anyway, since this blog is all about gratuitous use of Andrew pics, here he is with some of the junk: a boa and some scarves.
Post Script for the music teacher friends: Did not mean to imply that scarves were junk. Many cool things can be accomplished with scarves. Now, a feather boa on the other hand...

bOnce again, the pictures are too cute! And I think I have you beat. Being the pack rat and lazy slob I am, I can guarantee that I have choral music from reading sessions in the 80's as well as lesson plans from classes I taught in 1996 and 97. Haven't taught those classes since, so I kept everything "just in case". I don't even teach choir anymore!
It doesn't just apply to teaching either. Aaron's crib, red wagon and Tonka ride on truck are still in the garage. I'm sure there is more there if I ever bothered to unearth it. If we moved it in in 1994, it's still out there!
I accidentally hit a "b" before the "o" in once. Please disregard my poor typing.
LOLOLOL. You do have me beat but I, too, found tons of lesson plans from student teaching with Cathie Bird, and even some I found in the music room at North that had undoubtedly been written by some of Elaine's student teachers. I mean, come on now!!! 43 cents a pound was finally the push I needed to get that crap GONE.
