I think this blogging thing is going to take some time. I have to get over the feeling that what I have to say has to be AMAZING and AH inspiring. I just need to talk it out...or blog it out.
This week has been little difficult. I am a true Minnesotan, so complaining about the weather is in my blood, but I must out a disclaimer on what I am about to say. I am not complaining about the weather, but I am faulting it for my student's excess in energy. Hey, don't get me wrong I love the heat (in August with my feet dangling in my mom's pool), but it has to cool down. I feel for all the teachers working in buildings without air conditioning. Yuck!
Excess energy is my issue right now...well it's not MY issue, but it is room 130's issue. I wish we could harness that energy and save it for the gloomier, and much colder days ahead. Until then, I need some ideas! Believe me we are still getting some learning in, but I am getting a little tired of having to gather them all back again. Oh, OK that's it...I need some help during transitions. That's what I am going to spend my evening doing...google searching for new (and hopefully) improved transition ideas.
Like I said before, this blogging thing is going to take some time.
