I want to fall down.
The seniors did ok. I had one group that sucked. I made a mistake and didn’t put at least one strong student in the group so they just bombed and did jack shit all period. Hey–your grade buddy. Most of the class/groups did a fabulous job. The money stuff was too hard for them, everything else was great. I had a couple of kids try on my corset, mostly boys… It was cool.
Today I need to finish my lesson plans for tomorrow and I should get Monday done as well. I should also finish the last few folder for grading. I have not yet finished grading The Crucible final exam or either of the seniors’ essays. And now I have these packets to grade too. *sigh* That shit is not getting done this weekend. I am not even taking it home. I warned them that I am moving so forget it. Other teachers have told me that they are a month behind on grading so me being a week behind is not a big deal. oy. I hate being behind.
I need to figure out my two weeks of teaching full time. AHHH
I have it on my calendar when I need to sit down and write my next few papers. Heh. Due dates for myself a week before they are do. I just can’t pull all-nighters right now.
I am moving day after tomorrow. I have tonight and tomorrow left of commuting. I was approved for the apartment. yay! busy busy busy.
Puppy plans to go back up to Berkeley Sunday evening, so I will probably try to get some lesson planning done then as well. Tuesday is my big push day though. Tuesday I have to have my lesson plans finished for the rest of these units. Period. That way I will have an easier time when I pick up the two additional preps for two weeks. Thursday and Friday (next week) after school I will be grading. Saturday the 19th is so crazy booked. Sunday is my Puppy Day and it will be sacrosanct, damnit. So I have to be ready for the next week by Friday. This is my commitment to myself. I get upset with him for wasting our time together, that means I can’t do it either.
