be a better teacher
Just got promoted.. 2 years ago

So I guess that means I am doing well. But, I think that the mark of a good teacher and a way to fight burnout is to keep working at improvement. I still do a little too much “chalk and talk” and I want to figure out how to cover the same amount of material with less of that. My new job is still teaching the same level and coordinating the other elementary teachers. This is going to be interesting since organization isn’t my strong suit but I’m hoping to improve at it and that my strengths will balance this out.

I’m very happy and hoping to make my school a better place for the kids and the teachers.



get my CD-R drive fixed
my computer died 2 years ago

So I got a new one, my old CD-R is no longer an issue.



walk, really (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled 2 years ago

I’m off the crutches, but still hobbling. I need to be able to walk fast enough to hit the co-worker who thinks calling me “gimpy” is funny.
