I need to do this now! I've sat back and watched this site deteriorate really and there's little content here that's relevant or needed in the 2016 classroom. I've fallen behind the times and it's really important to me that this site picks up and generates the content that will warrant the incredible support I've had over the years. I'm tough on myself because even though I run this site for free, it started out as a labour of love and excuses like 'I just don't have the time' are not like me at all. An hour a night is probably not beyond the realms of reality and so I am hoping to check in more regularly and make small updates here and there to a number of pages as well as upload new content, ideas and resources. I just hope I don't return in 6 months to see that this site hasn't returned to previous levels. At it's peak the site drew 6,000 unique visitors a day. I'm on Page 1 of Google for a number of Literacy and English based searches so it's time to bring old guests back and to entice new guests to enjoy and spread the word.
