1 1 2 3 5: It's about time...
http://one-one-two.blogspot.com/2009/09/its-about-time.html
Tuesday, September 29, 2009. And I have none! I'm spending a few quick minutes in the computer lab with Group B and thought it would be a good opportunity to update my blog. There are so many things I wish I had time for. I want to take dance lessons again, or at least get to the gym a few times a week! I also would like some divine intervention to provide me with the time and energy to coach cheerleading. And with that, I'm out of time! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). You Should Get an A.

Tuesday, August 4, 2009. Life, Death, and Grammar. Now who would've thought I'd be blogging so much? Given how much I love to talk, I bet everyone but me! Really. Is the letter that accuses the defendant of all the crimes (the "indictment") written in the conjunctive or the disjunctive (does it have lots of "ands" or is it full of "ors"? Then I had to figure out if there were transitive verbs, and if so, what the nouns they were paired up with meant. And that was only half of the work! You Should Get an A.

1 1 2 3 5: Change is Scary!
http://one-one-two.blogspot.com/2009/07/change-is-scary.html
Friday, July 31, 2009. As the new school year approaches, I am using the few work-free days of summer I have left to prepare. I am so excited about teaching the amazing students of the EACPA. I have a tendency to get so enthusiastic about what all innovations I want to implement that I forget to figure out how to implement them! Procedures, it turns out, are humongously important! Where will students turn in their homework? How will students make up classwork from days when they're absent? Lots to ponder...

Peña's Pointers: Memorable experience
http://penaspointers.blogspot.com/2009/07/memorable-experience.html
Monday, July 13, 2009. One of my most memorable experiences happened about three years ago here in Texas. I was teaching a fourth grade bilingual class. I had a student who was a model student - eager to learn, very respectful. The student started with "am I going to get in trouble for telling you? July 14, 2009 at 6:57 AM. July 14, 2009 at 7:33 AM. It is fascinating how our students help us learn about life through moments like this! I also had a similar situation this year with a student who was not a ...

1 1 2 3 5: Giving thanks
http://one-one-two.blogspot.com/2009/11/giving-thanks.html
Thursday, November 26, 2009. I've always said that my kids (students) are naturally brilliant. I don't think they understand what I mean. Maybe they think I'm just joking. I mean what I said: my kids are naturally brilliant. The students displayed courage and trust by telling me how they feel based on what teachers say and do. They also gave me some insight into how their families feel about their education. Second, how much should parents be involved in their kids' educations? You Should Get an A. All s...

Wednesday, January 6, 2010. The price of getting behind. Last night I worked until 8, mainly on Globaloria. I had not kept up with my learning log. I have a feeling that many of my students have found themselves in the same situation. I spent a lot of time finding the computer assignments I had typed up and reading students' blogs and emails to make sure I had matched the assignments and dates correctly. It was a pain. Friday, January 1, 2010. Blogging for 6th Graders. There's an adage that "all's well t...
