A few weeks ago our class of teacher candidates received a presentation on creating a blog/ePortfolio. We were told the sooner we started this project the better off we would be.

So, here I am, writing my first post. I would love to tell you what to expect of my blog, but honestly I am not yet sure what to expect of it. I imagine that here you will read of my observations, my failures, and my successes throughout my year in the UBC Bachelor of Education program. It will hopefully document my personal growth, the development of my teaching philosophy, and my areas of major interest and advocacy in education.

Why “Everyday Smiles”? I have decided to title my blog Everyday Smiles because I believe in always smiling and enjoying everything I do. I believe enthusiasm is contagious, and that if teachers are passionate about something they can instill this enthusiasm in their students. I strive to promote lifelong learning, and hope that smiles will accompany this learning day after day!

Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog, and please leave a comment!
