            Crack the egg into a small bowl.
            Remove the middle piece of the bread from the slice, try to make it into a perfect circle.
            Prepare the butter on a flat iron pan.

Step 2: Cooking - 
            Place the pan with butter on it on a medium flame.
            Let butter melt evenly over the pan.
            Then place the bread on the pan
            Take the egg in a bowl and pour into the center of the bread where the hole is.

Step 3: Adding Flavoring -
            While the egg is still cooking add the pinch of salt and pepper.

    I love that you used a recipe for your reading passage! What a clever and fun idea! I like that all of the components of this entry connect to recipes. I really enjoyed your fill in the blanks vocabulary activity, and your sequential order grammar practice. This help English Language Learners make real life connections to learning grammar concepts and vocabulary words!

    I think it was an excellent idea to incorporate a recipe into your blog posts! Many students don't know how to cook, and many students are also left home alone after school. This is a great way to get your students thinking about ways to cook for themselves. Great way to foster independence while also educating your students on grammar points!

When I was just about a week old I was adopted by a kind and loving family. They brought me to New York where I grew up in a small town called Malverne. It was a small town but had more than enough to keep me content. As I got older I developed a passion for history and museums. I would spend hours upon hours watching history videos on YouTube and the History Channel. After High School, I went to SUNY Oneonta where I graduated a fully certified secondary history teacher. While I was trying to find a full-time position I was working as a substitute in a district that had a high population of ESOL students. I began to really develop my idea of how I can  make a difference . I hope that you will see that I am as good a teacher a

As the Crow Flies

A crow once flew through New York City. It landed on a lamp pole in Central Park to watch the people live their lives. The bird watched a small child chase a ball as his mother talked to the other parents at the playground. The bird was intrigued by the child's ball. It watched as the child rolled the ball around the Alice in Wonderland statue in Central Park. The bronze made the sun glisten and disoriented the crow for a moment. It flew down to the ground where there was plenty of spilled snacks children carelessly threw on the ground as they played. To the Crow's delight, he was able to luxuriate his hunger. The Crow had almost all but forgotten about the boy and his little ball when he heard the child cry. The boy had lost his ball. The Crow looked around and took flight. He saw the ball hiding behind a tree. The Crow dove down and retrieved the ball which was about twice the size his size. However, the bird grew attached to his unwitting meal provider and wanted to do somet

A Wonderful Time

"Hey there, want to play ball? Want to go to the park and run around like how we used to" You try to get up but your legs are old and the arthritis is kicking in. "Maybe tomorrow, though I don't know how many tomorrows may be left for an old guy like me. We can always just sit here, together on this couch, right?" you rest your weary head upon my lap, "please scratch behind my ears, tell me I'm a good boy!" your tail gives a small wag as I indulge your requests. "I have given you all my love over the years. In return, you kept me well fed, walked me, through the rain, through the snow. Oh, how we loved to play in the snow. I can still remember the first time we went out into it together." I get up slowly and help you to the car. "Why are you sad, are we going to the park?" You lick my face as the tears stream from my eyes. "It's ok, it's alright Big Guy, I wish you could understand that I know you've done so mu
