In the midst of sickness, family hardships, being bogged down with work, and paper-grading, I submit to you an ingenious method for easing one's workload when faced with 80 essays. The writer of this site has made me rethink the way that I approach my work.
In all seriousness, I could use some prayer. My classes have taken a sad turn-- I don't think my students will be ready to take the MCAS next week. We have had trouble keeping up with the calendar and are more than a little behind in the curriculum. There have been more than a few incidents of student misconduct recently and we have a few expulsions in the pipe-line. Meanwhile, because of personal issues, I've suddenly had to take several days off for the first time this year, which makes me feel like I'm losing connection with my students. All this may turn out to be nothing more than a bit of a speed bump, but right now I'm tempted to be worried.
As for Project Destiny, the planning team meets for the first time since I left, tomorrow. That means I'm pretty sure I'll be taking a break this summer-- a prospect that I would have once balked at, but which I now see wisdom in. Still, I'll miss the action...
