Early Dismissal
as much as I do NOT want more snow I am so happy we have an early dismissal tomorrow at 11:20. Altho we still have to go to our faculty meeting :(

Dear MTEL,
Why does your reading specialist test have to be so mean and take all of my money just to tell me I didn’t pass by 4 points and then refuse to tell me what I got wrong so that I might study for the next one? Why do you have to be ridiculously, obnoxiously hard and irrelevant? Why do you make me pay an obscene amount of money on a prep course so that I don’t have to continue paying...

hopefully I can stop being such a lazy ass and workout everyday

What If We Treated Doctors The Way We Treat... →
What if we indeed held doctors and other professionals to the same bloat and condescension that we currently hold teachers? I can predict some of the responses that physicians might make: “We can’t control what our patients do or eat outside of our offices to maintain minimum levels of health.

COME on, you can do it! You can do it! You can do it!
I need some Eye of the Tiger up in here.
I absolutely love every single thing about teaching — except for grading [oh, and paper work. oh, and standardized testing. oh, and calling parents.] Okay, I lied. Maybe I just love the VERB: teaching [the act of doing it; not all that side stuff.]
