Quick Update
So, I know I’ve been largely absent (other than reblogging cool things) since my Ready or Not post. But I promise I’m still alive and actually thriving in my student teaching. However it doesn’t do me much good to have this as a record of my student teaching when I don’t post. But right now I’m simply too busy. I’ll come back later and do either a giant post on everything that’s transpired recently or a bunch of shorter ones…I haven’t decided yet.

There is no such thing as a child who hates to read; there are only children who have not found the right book.
– Frank Serafini (via booksandnerds) Via Books and nerdsWhy grading takes me so long:
- Read a page.
- Shake my damn head.
- Sit in disbelief that someone thought this was good.
- Check the internet to clear up my head.
- Finish reading paper.
- Craft a long letter to the student (average of 400 words) where I try to find something to praise and yet ultimately tell them why this is not good.
- Shake my head. They won’t even take the time to read my letter.
- Start again.
Pinterest inspired do it yourself planner. I love this. It uses sticky notes (I would get the super stickys.)
