Student Response To My Question:  "What Did Our Class Mean To You?"

What Our Class Meant To Me: 

I hold a special place in my heart for this class because I feel like we spent so much time together during some of the most important years of our early development. Even after more than 20 years apart, when I see people from our class today, it feels like no time has passed at all—we can pick up right where we left off, almost like family. Those were incredibly formative years for me, and I believe that the experiences we shared and the environment we grew up in helped shape many of the characteristics and behaviors I carry with me as an adult. I also see those same positive qualities in so many of my former classmates: kindness, thoughtfulness, compassion, and a genuine care for others. There is something really special about knowing that we grew up together and that those early years continue to connect us in meaningful ways.  from Ami Zagata

     Hello! I am on this website for the first time in several years.  So much has happened. My husband, Roland, spent the Covid quarantine years in hospice at home until his death last year. I rewrote my book, adding chapters and  direct resources for teachers and parents. Those are the facts. Having a project with a purpose has helped me recover emotionally and physically. 
      I recently joined Bay Area Independent Publishers and have enjoyed editing support from the Wonder Lady, Ruth Schwarz. Trust Children is in the final formatting stages and will be published soon, perhaps by the end of this month.  The next step is getting the word out.  I am open to suggestions. 
       The next time I blog you will be able to see my book's new cover on the website; I love it! I also have a publishing company: Real Learning Press.  :)  Holding a positive vision for the future is essential in these perilous times.
