Depending on the day, the verbs may change. Some days planning; another day may be designing and creating; and another may be thinking and composing. What ever the vocabulary, one would never find boring amongst the words. I have worked at about 15 of the SCWWs. The writers and teachers have always been amazingly gifted. This year was my first year as a site supervisor and found it a wonderfully fullfilling experience getting to know the parents, children, teachers, writers, Long, Robin, and Karen in a closer relationship. It was a summer job that was like a vacation! pg “Working” is not the right verb in describing being colleagues, teammates,and partners with Amy and Deanna and Jack at the AOS campus.

Even if i don't ever physically see it, i will see it in my dreams and live it through that i will tell my children and anyone else who is willing to listen.
