Monday Memories

Well, today was I got to work way early...2 copiers down, one special education folder for my student missing, and lessons and thoughts to get straightened out. I think that is the hard thing about being a teacher in a new charter school is that everything is still being worked out and that you really have to use what you have.

I have a presentation to give on our staff day so I thought what sort of strategies could I give that might be useful to everyday teaching. I decided to go to an education website, I believe it is www.eduplace.com and down load most of their graphic organizers. We are blessed to have smartboards so I scanned in the graphic organizers and put them on a shared drive so that they could use them in their teaching. I also saved them as a pdf version so that they could print them off to use for their students. I think that this will be beneficial for them if they want to use them.

I took dinner over to a friends work for the family that had their little girl life flighted, tonight. If felt good to do something nice for someone. Than me and my friend went for a run/walk for about 3 miles. It was really cold out and I felt like I had some ashma as I was running. I think I might be fighting off a cold; my friend would probably agree because I was being very unlady like as I was trying to get rid of all the flem build up.

Anyways, my husband just got home from a grouling day, I'm going to bed
