Balance

November 15, 2022November 15, 2022 / battlekimoftherepublic / Leave a comment

Life is a balance. And lately my life has been so far out of balance that I almost didn't post today. But I'm working on it. See life isn't just one component. It's a stool, and if one of the legs of the stool are shorter or are gone completely, the stool will either wobble … Continue reading Balance

New Teaching Practices

August 2, 2022 / battlekimoftherepublic / Leave a comment

Here we go! The first couple days of school have passed already for me and many other people. My summer is officially coming to an end, even if the weather disagrees. So while my blog isn't specifically a teaching blog, I'm going to spend today to focus on what I do. I'm not perfect by … Continue reading New Teaching Practices

Thoughts from a Pro-Choice Christian

June 28, 2022 / battlekimoftherepublic / 3 Comments

This is the hardest blog post I've ever written and possibly the hardest one I'll ever have to write. I recognize that writing this may cost me some respect, followers, or even friends. But I also believe that staying silent on this decision is not the right thing for me. I make it a point … Continue reading Thoughts from a Pro-Choice Christian

The History of Father’s Day

June 21, 2022 / battlekimoftherepublic / 1 Comment

Sunday was a couple of different holidays here in the United States, but one of them was Father's Day. I did a history of Mother's Day post a few years ago (May 2019 to be specific), but I've never done a Father's Day history post. It's time that we change that! So Father's Day actually … Continue reading The History of Father’s Day

The History of Memorial Day

May 31, 2022May 31, 2022 / battlekimoftherepublic / Leave a comment

I haven't done a history lesson in a while, so I figured we're overdue. Yesterday was Memorial Day here in the United States. Most people I know treat it as a free 3-day weekend. Others think of it as the unofficial start of summer. And others still think of it as a way to honor … Continue reading The History of Memorial Day

Reset

February 1, 2022February 1, 2022 / battlekimoftherepublic / 2 Comments

It is so crazy to me that we're already a month into 2022. I feel like January normally takes forever to get through. But this year, it feels like it has flown by. I know, for me at least, that this year is already starting out full of chaos. There's been a lot going on … Continue reading Reset

Start of Year 2!

August 3, 2021 / battlekimoftherepublic / 1 Comment

I have officially started my second year of teaching! It's so crazy to be back! A lot has changed, but a lot has also stayed the same. I've spent the time this summer working and learning, but I haven't forgotten about teaching. Teaching is like riding a bike. Once you know how to do it, … Continue reading Start of Year 2!

One Year of Teaching Down

June 1, 2021 / battlekimoftherepublic / Leave a comment

I am almost done! I made it through my first school year as a licensed teacher! The pandemic made it a weird year, and I definitely never thought I would be teaching virtually for most of the year. Regardless, I made a lot of memories, established good relationships with my students, and learned many things … Continue reading One Year of Teaching Down

A History of Labor Day

September 8, 2020 / battlekimoftherepublic / Leave a comment

This past Monday, America and some other countries celebrated Labor Day. Besides a day off of school and work, I wondered what is Labor Day? Why do we celebrate Labor Day? So, like any good historian, I set to find the answer for all of you. This story begins back in the late 1800s. To … Continue reading A History of Labor Day

The History of St. Patrick’s Day

March 17, 2020March 20, 2020 / battlekimoftherepublic / Leave a comment

St. Patrick's Day is a very largely celebrated holiday, especially in the United States. But how did this Irish holiday come to be celebrated? Well, since most of the world is under isolation or quarantine, I thought I could share a history lesson with all of you. Maybe it will distract you from the chaos … Continue reading The History of St. Patrick’s Day
