I am back for another year of Spanish I and II! It's a decision I wrestled with all summer, but one that after a lot of time and thought, I knew was the choice to make.
I will commit to seeing this year through and I am hoping to make it to the other side with an improved perspective. It is a whole new year, after all.
I'm making a few small changes this year.
Planning
I'm planning using an online planning book. I can attach documents, share my planbook, copy and paste entire lesson plans, share my plan book with collegues, print it out for a sub...I am hoping that this will eliminate the "I made that quiz two weeks ago, WHERE is it?!" conundrum I seem to always find myself in.
Walking
I am going to walk outside, every day (unless its a total blizzard or -30 below). I will walk at home with my dog or during my lunch period at school. It's important that every day I get outside in the daylight. Every. Day.
Eating
I am going to try cooking larger amounts on Sunday to at least take care of the beginning of each week for lunches. Salmon with quinoa and roasted veggies is this week's brown bag contents.
Tertulia
Thursdays will be "Tertulia" in my room. Students can come in for extra help, to make up assessments, or to volunteer to help me. Students that attend four Tertulia sessions will receive 10 extra credit points per session. This hopefully will eliminate students randomly asking to make up assessments, and provide incentive to come in for studying.
Organization? Physical activity? Happy healthy food? More free time at lunch? Let's give it a try!
