Is it really October? I just sat through a goal team meeting and we were planning our fall festival. It suddenly dawned on me that Thanksgiving is around the corner and then.......ta da.......Christmas! I then realized that I'm a month behind on my class newsletter. Oops! There is simply not enough time in the day.
I'm so thrilled with how my students are responding to Old Yeller. The book has such good humor and they are enjoying the assignments that I've assigned to each chapter. I'm so proud of the way they've created their own blog sites. Every Wednesday we go to the computer lab and they spend their time writing summaries, answering questions, and responding to other blogs. Parents are even creating their own sites and joining us on the journey. We will be wrapping up the current unit next week. I just don't know what book or project to incorporate into the next unit. I'm sure it will hit me in the middle of the night.
I'm sooooooo thankful my Saturday class on School Resource and Allocation is done. I enjoyed having the quick class (8 weeks) but really missed having my Saturdays. I will be taking another Saturday session next semester. Until then, I will make the most of those days!!! Making the most definitely includes SLEEP.
I can say that I am certainly being stretched this semester. I'm learning a lot about prioritizing and just letting the little things that I cannot control go. Hmmmmm.....unfortunately my house (laundry, cleaning, organizing) seems to be in the "it's gone" category. Multi-tasking has gone to a whole new level.
