On Friday, some of us at school took a van tour of the neighborhood to see where our students come from. It is amazing how beautiful one housing development is and its contrast to the trailer court next to it! But it was a lot of fun and great to see. Our turf is huge! No wonder we have nearly a thousand students!
Thursday after the meetings we had a grade level meeting and talked about what sorts of things we’re going to do the first day (Monday). So I spent a few hours Thursday night coming up with a schedule and lesson plans. I posted these on Friday and three of the other teachers liked it so well they copied it!
Blog of the Week: http://tinyurl.com/65d59w I know, I haven’t done this in a long time! The blog entry in that link isn’t the most recent (the ones above it on the right sidebar are) but it’s the one that drew me in. The author is a Fullbright Scholar who moved to Bulgaria this week. Talk about Adventures in Moving and Living! Makes moving to Arizona look so tame!
One of the things I wore to school this week was the necklace Lisa bought me at the art show in Mt. Horeb while I was there. Many people commented on how they loved it! My camera is being wonky at the moment, so I haven’t taken a picture of the necklace yet, but I will when I can.
