I keep starting posts and not finishing them.
Haven't written in my paper journal in a while either. Writing is helpful, but finding the energy is hard. (Plus I always have a grillion other things I need to be doing.)
Called K2's dad tonight, re: helping him cope with classmates ragging on him without turning into a flaming fireball of shouting and/or weeping. Emphasized that he wasn't in trouble, but that I was concerned and wanted to help him be successful. We'll see how that went over in the morning, I guess.
Three prep periods today, and two tomorrow. Today two of them were for grade group/CSAP meetings (CSAP is basically where you troubleshoot problem kids), but I cannot figure out why I have two tomorrow. Weird as it sounds, I would actually like to have time to do some TEACHING once in a while... :P
Posts I Will Write At Some Point
- -Women's pants (yes, this is related to teaching)
- County vs. township school districting
- teachers are aliens from mars (or, "you eat lunch?")
- Urban appendices to management books
- Cultural differences in discipline
- Ruby Payne's "A Framework for Understanding Poverty"
