http://back-to-school.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Saturday, July 21, 2007. Of books and beatings. First, the books:. Which leads us to the business:. Our story begins on Wednesday during break, when I happen to glance out the window and see an unfamiliar kid on my balcony whip off his shirt and disappear around the corner to a rapt audience of about 20 kids. I am running towards the door with one hand already dialing the phone when I hear a heavy thud against my wall. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Thursday, May 31, 2007. I just busted out the ole' day planner to schedule my last 3 weeks of English 9 - I am going to kick their asses with work, here - and realized that the next day I spend without some type of work-related, time-consuming obligation is June 17th, 2 weeks from Sunday. 20 straight days of work? New record, anyone? Wednesday, May 30, 2007. Highlights of my day:. I breathed pepper spray for the first time! ROMEO: Is she a Capulet? Other ...

I am still learning.: changing it up
http://back-to-school.blogspot.com/2007/06/changing-it-up.html
I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Sunday, June 24, 2007. As you may recall, we adopted a second cat awhile back. She was really beautiful, but so mean. She chased the Major around mercilessly and bit everyone and he lost a lot of weight because she wouldn't let him eat. They were not the best of friends. So, we packed her up and sent her back. It took about 3 seconds for the buddy to get all neurotic and weird again, with no Great Enemy to take up all his time. Love the illustrated story.

I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Friday, March 23, 2007. And laugh heartily at the line about "district support" for alternative applicants like ourselves, as you picture the grant-writing team subsisting on Gummy Bears and Orange Shasta for an entire week and shouting deleriously at each other about the trolls living under the 100 bungalows. We are faking our way through writing a grant! As far as my original list is concerned, little progress has been made. 8226; Plan wedding:. Success...

I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Monday, September 25, 2006. If I posted at all regularly, you would probably have noticed that I have been gone for the past week. At the moment I'm taking advantage of JetBlue's free wireless while I wait for my plane to start boarding, which should be happening any minute now. Thoughts on travel:. It is SO. SO. SO. easy to sort out the New Yorkers from the Angelenos on these flights. The exchange went like this:. Me: That's considered a gel? My classroo...

I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Sunday, November 26, 2006. The mysterious disappearance of mr. cheeseburger. And the overdue return of me. Cheeseburger into my classroom. Until then, announcements the old-fashioned and oft-ignored way. This is the logo of the restaurant where we had pretty decent Mexican food while I was visiting folk in New York a month or two ago:. Attended - and presented at! A bucket of popcorn while watching the acrobatics. The only drawback of this is you have...

I am still learning.: the nuclear family
http://back-to-school.blogspot.com/2007/08/nuclear-family.html
I am still learning. And sometimes, I even teach. Saturday, August 04, 2007. We sort of accidentally got a third cat. Not that she's staying here permanently, mind.just that she wandered in the door a week and a half ago and kind of refused to leave. She's the sweetest thing in the world, silky and docile with a sort of bemused Luna Lovegood-ish gaze. But then I've been seeing Luna in everything since viewing the otherwise painfully mediocre Order of the Phoenix. The Tiny (aka Nathan Scott Phillips.

Bonus item: my favorite Williams citation was for a "daisy chain of surge protectors.". Who comes up with this shit? Monday, August 07, 2006. Excerpts from my personal hell. This is how the meeting goes after class. First let me say that I just love your room. Actually, that wasn't working. That's why we moved to groups.
