Preparation


"By failing to prepare you are preparing to fail."
-Benjamin Franklin

Well, I'm happy to have my lesson plan for a paraprofessional ready to be taught tomorrow, so I'm hoping that goes well. Additionally, I need more data for me student and will be retesting him on several level three and level five passages. I intend to do this before school on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I just need to remember to wake up early! I know I can do this, but I think I was relying too much on Spring Break to get stuff done. It's time to get on the pony and ride as they say! I have to balance all of the work with teaching, accreditation, and class appropriately, and methodically get my testing done. I have to have all of my normal lesson plans ready ahead of time, since I normally do them in the morning. Preparation will be key. Wish me luck!

  1. Erik,
    I feel you, I'm going through the same thing, with accreditation and all. I too was looking forward to "catching-up" during spring break. So, like you I got to get moving!! Yup, there's work due before spring break. Oh well, we'll get caught up soon enough! Have a great weekend!

  2. We're almost there, Erik...hang in there! I told myself that this semester will be different from all the others, because I wasn't going to procrastinate like I normally do. Somehow, I've been keeping to my word. I know you; you'll get the job done in no time!

  3. Good luck Erik. We're all rooting for you. It's nice to know we can all relate to each other's experiences.

  4. You'll get it done, Erik! Maybe things will work out earlier and Easter Break will be freer for you to rest and relax. Good luck, Sir!
