I could not narrow it down anymore -Laurie ‘s is ” The First of Octember” ( But I do love the Sneetches! 🙏🏻💗 )
March and Dr Seus/ ‘s history and stories is much adored by students everywhere at the beginning of each March and Laurie transfers this into other plants -and not just camellias.
Loropetalum
This is Laurie’s favorite March Plant … over the camellias. Birds and yes, squirrels love it too-gorgeous!!!!
And the thing about March… almost every day brings up another celebration and’ or famous face and biography!
I read one quote that said ” March and Popcorn go hand in hand … there is not a day that something isn’t popping !!!đź‘‹
So until tomorrow….As a new week in March begins… enjoy another new March memory.
I was born a Tarheel but ended up a Sandlapper. My grandparents
were cotton farmers in Laurens, South Carolina and it was in my
grandmother’s house that my love of storytelling began beside an old
Franklin stove. When I graduated from Laurens High School, I attended
Erskine College (Due West of what?) and would later get my Masters
Degree in Education/Social Studies from Charleston Southern. I am
presently an adjunct professor/clinical supervisor at CSU and have also
taught at the College of Charleston.
For 28 years I taught Social Studies through storytelling. My philosophy
matched Rudyard Kipling’s quote: “If history were taught in the form of
stories, it would never be forgotten.” Today I still spread this message
through workshops and presentations throughout the state. The secret
of success in teaching social studies is always in the story.
I want to keep learning and being surprised by life…it is the greatest
teacher. Like Kermit said, “When you’re green you grow, when you’re
ripe you rot.”
