When are we ever going to use this? The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards." -Anatole France. Saturday, September 03, 2005. Just finished my first 4 days of preservice work. Since we moved to a new (to us) facility this year there has been a lot of unpacking and scrounging of materials. I am exhausted, but not overwhelmed. This is a good thing. I will write a more detailed report sometime this weekend.

lit lover: September 2004
http://lit-lover.blogspot.com/2004_09_01_archive.html
Reflections of an ever-evolving educator. Wednesday, September 29, 2004. Back to back to back. My planning is almost over and the day will jump into full swing. I have lunch duty today and am just finishing monitoring a standardized test during my planning. Add to that a full teaching day, with me teaching bell to bell, back to back lessons for the remainder of the day and you can share in my joy. Posted by lit lover @ 10:20 AM. Monday, September 27, 2004. Today I said something I really shouldn't have s...

First year teacher rambles on. Up the down staircase. Blog of a math teacher. I am frequently asked questions. Sunday, February 29, 2004. I figured i'd make a quick post about last week as i watch the oscars and avoid doing overdue work. Next period, the principal again comes on over the intercom. this time she announces that due to impending snow, school will be let out at noon. i hung around for a little while, but the snow was coming down quite hard. everyone else seemed to be waiting arou...I may mak...

First year teacher rambles on. Up the down staircase. Blog of a math teacher. I am frequently asked questions. Tuesday, December 23, 2003. On the end of course tests from the state, i was particularly pleased that the student with whom i've done quite a bit of individual instruction after school passed with the highest level. he was rather ecstatic and stated he'd never gotten that high before. i think he was the only student in any course to receive that high a score at the school.

First year teacher rambles on. Up the down staircase. Blog of a math teacher. I am frequently asked questions. Thursday, August 25, 2005. First times at newschool high. Well that was interesting. With about 30 minutes left, homeroom ended and first period began. (this means i need to run out of that class and try to beat my first period students to the classroom; homeroom is not in the room where i have first period.).

lit lover: January 2005
http://lit-lover.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Reflections of an ever-evolving educator. Monday, January 24, 2005. I've been so swamped that I neglected to write about my Friday morning last week. I need to write about it because I really need to remember it. Always. Friday morning, one of my colleagues (and a friend as well) called in sick. No sub was immediately available to cover her first period class, so, naturally, I stepped in, being the only one available with first period planning. No biggie, right? A chorus of agreement ripples across the r...

Reflections of an ever-evolving educator. Sunday, March 27, 2005. Is there light at the end of the tunnel? I lost my planning everyday this week to graduation testing. Only a teacher. So then I lose my planning for the week- guess how behind I am now? Spring break is only a week away. Rinse and repeat. Posted by lit lover @ 10:15 AM. Saturday, March 12, 2005. Once again, I spent the morning in an in-service, this time one on curriculum mapping. All while the presenters choose NOT TO DO SO. Why not just s...

when are we ever going to use this?: The First Days

When are we ever going to use this? The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards." -Anatole France. Saturday, September 10, 2005. Overall, I'd say the first two days of school went well. There was some confusion the first day due to some scheduling issues, but that was taken care of by the end of the day. Posted by Melissa @ 4:04 PM. A Series of Inconsequential Events. Are we doing anything today?

When are we ever going to use this? The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for the purpose of satisfying it afterwards." -Anatole France. Monday, October 03, 2005. I'm starting to notice that student teaching class = not much time for anything else. Why does it seem like I'm only ever doing stuff for school or class? Yuck I'm tired of being single. There is no one to come home to. Posted by Melissa @ 10:52 PM. In regards to the aphid problem. Re: Aphid...
