Fail...and Start Again

I stay complaining about my students' procrastinating, but I must have some nerve. Right now I feel like the most unprepared teacher in the world. It's like writing a paper in college the day the paper was due. Augh...now that I have dealt with my failure, I must get up again.

Politriks/Politics

Layoffs and budget cuts are kicking our communities' butts. On Wednesday, Boston organized:




In L.A., 46 Arrested During LAUSD Teachers' Protest and
L.A. Students Walk Out of School to Protest Teacher Layoffs

You Get What You Give

The one bad thing about giving students' long assignments is that you have to grade them. I WISH I had the mental capacity to finish my drafted entries and do more writing but I am in the midst of reading 60 20-40 page papers.



What have I done to myself? Next year, project based classroom with a hint of writing. Lol -just kidding, but seriously...I'll try to be back when I have mental space that's free of the mental constipation and diarrhea of 17 year old senioritised writing.

Bye for now.
