Proud to be at Americinn
I’ve never heard of the Americinn hotel chain, but so far I’m impressed. Flew out to Minneapolis earlier, grabbed a quick bite to eat and then headed over to the hotel. I thought it was going to be just some local yahoo hotel but the place has free HBO, breakfast included, a patio or balcony attached to the room, and best of all…. Free wifi!
I know Dave Warlick has written about that before, but it really does make a huge difference having the free Wifi. As soon as I heard that, I was in love with the hotel before I’d even opened up the door to the room!
So tomorrow I get started at the workshop. Rather looking forward to it. I’m joined here by one other teacher from my school. She’s going to be a first year teacher, finished her undergrad last year and is finishing her master’s degree this summer. She’s going to be teaching first grade and is rearing to go. I have to admit, it’s been a little nerve wracking not having met the rest of my team, or any other teachers at all actually. I almost wish I could have gone to this workshop in July with the rest of the faculty, but I can’t complain. It means I get to get out of town one more time.
Well, time to get some rest. next entry will probably be notes from the workshop!
