This was basically me today.
Today I had nothing to do- NOTHING.
And that is exactly what I did. I should have at least done some housework
STARTED writing my curriculum- which I am SUCKING OUT ON. Has anyone out there written a math curriculum? Written any kind of curriculum at all? Can you help me? Please?? I am having a hard time translating the vague ideas I have on what I should cover into compelling classroom activities for the next 180 school days.
I am seriously crashing and burning on this one.
I basically spent all day watching bad tv and eating grape popcicles and looking for jobs to imaginary-apply to for next year instead of the one I already have.
ugh. I can be so self defeating sometimes.
I need to remember how to get myself (and the momentum in my life) rolling again.
Oh, and here's a really awesome article on poverty:
http://www.slate.com/id/2195897/I'm surprised that they didn't touch on the "bread and roses" movement.
