I guess my glow this week is that I love that so much of what we are learning in our class is so easy to put to work in my class. As we are bombarded with so much Common Core Best Practices in staff development, I find myself saying, “Cool! This goes right along with what I read about last night in my Linguistics book,” or “This ties in well with what we learned in class last week!” It just seems to come together so well. Now let me vent my groans. So much to do and not enough close to enough time! GTES conference this week that I am stressed about, reflections and Task 2, normal work for school -papers to grade, tests to create, lesson plans, and it goes on and on. Somewhere in there I am supposed to be a great mom and wife. Task 2 WILL get done, though.
I feel your stress. Hard to know what to do first. Went on a marriage retreat this week-end and took my work, but didn't get to any of it. Probably shouldn't have taken it. The time away was great and much needed. I enjoy our class meetings and on-line classes. I have a RBES conference this week, too. Feel like there are too many balls to juggle. Know that you are not alone. Thanks for your honesty. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
