drawing a line in the sand...

You know the first day of school is coming soon if...

• you simply cannot remember the last day you didn't make a trip to Staples or Walmart
• your custodian secretly leaves a super-sized trash bag in your classroom
• you only have one alarm-free weekday remaining

It's true. I'm drawing a line in the sand. Last week was filled with assessment meetings and classroom organization. Yesterday I met my fall semster intern. Today I presented a classroom management session at our district new teacher orientation. And tonight I will be heading to a faculty/staff pot luck dinner to ring in the new year. So...that's it...I'm crossing over. Today was my last day of "teacher stuff" in the summertime. Tomorrow will hold a jumpstart to our inservice that officially starts on Friday morning.

Let the random blogging of my classroom life resume!

Hope you're having a great week...make it count!
