My logo for Teaching in the Fast Lane is actually pretty easy to explain. As a hobby I race cars. It is one of those things that always seems to interest people when I talk about it, so I thought it would be a unique spin on a blog name combining the two ways that I spend the majority of my time; racing and teaching.
To add to this, my classroom has the theme of Ms. R's Racers (because who doesn't love alliteration?) so it seemed like a natural fit. As I have continued on my blogging journey I have been very happy with my choice, as I find that it is just different enough to make it memorable. I hope so anyway!
Christi from Design by Christi is the one who actually created my button, so I can't take the credit there. She is amazing!

What an awesome story! You don't hear of real life race car drivers much. Your kids probably think that is awesome. I'm not so cool in my Honda Odyssey, am I?? Thanks for sharing...
