Summertime and the Blogging is Easy
OK – It was summertime and I was relaxed. That has to be the reason I told Wes and NJEA that I would be part of their first blog. How hard can in be? I read blogs all the time about football and baseball, and all you have to do is write down your perception of what is happening. Yeah I must have been real relaxed. Now school has started, and I don’t mean the first day or two where you assigning seats, going over the rules of the classroom, and having students fill out forms about themselves. I mean where you realize that your schedule is being changed, the computer grade book isn’t up and running yet, you had a surge in the student population and now you don’t have enough books for everyone, your master class has started, the committee one of your colleagues volunteered you for is meeting once a week and CST has a great idea that each child with a special need deserves an hour of your attention every day. All right the last part may be a bit of a stretch, but you get my drift.
Anyway my point is in spite of maybe because of, all the reasons above I find myself enjoying this. It’s definitely not because I like to write, but I think it’s because I still like learning. The Hipp grants our school received, along with this blog is presenting new opportunities, new ways to present the curriculum so hopefully more students take an interest in technology and math, or at the very least get a better understanding of math.
