Thanks to Mrs. Yollis’ class and video for inspiring these comment guidelines.

Don’t need to publish this: Go right ahead! The link and your kind note are perfect. Good luck in all you do. 🙂
By the way, when I went to open your blog in Internet Explorer, it froze my computer twice–I am wondering if you have some code problems?

Thanks for the note about the freezing web page. I’ve heard that from others too. Sue is checking to see if it’s a theme problem. I appreciate your comments and thanks for your great work going before us! Denise

Hello! I’m starting a blogging project with my high school Algebra 2 Honors students this year and I’m THRILLED to have found your online posting and commenting guidelines! I’m using many of them with my students (with proper credit, of course). Thank you so much!
