This IT History project is large; working with Julie and Scott will keep me sane. The research has been eye opening, and I'm beginning to see how everything works and connects. Coming up with creative tools and ideas for my contract items has been challenging, but I am finding some items that will create a cohesive cluster of work that will be beneficial to my instructional goals.
Just found out that I need to take a 3 hour Personal Financial Literacy test - this is to develop the cut offs for the national certification. I guess I need to study up to make sure I remember all the technical jargon and figure out percentages!!
Tomorrow is Chef for a Day - looking forward to seeing Sara's healthy dessert prepared. The kids seem excited, and I am very proud that Sara is in FCCLA with me.
And on top of all this we have the ASK testing. Long drawn out testing, leaving the kids bouncing off the wall.
The good news is that when all of this combines together it will help develop us into the people we were meant to be. Like the crazy quilt that keeps us warm and comforted - well tonight we might need that quilt!
Oh my, that is a crazy quilt! I think that is the way our class started out! What are we doing? hahaha....Well now we have our proverbial feet wet with this assignment and we WILL make a dazzling final exhibit. :) I look forward to our weekend Skype session to pull this task all together!
ReplyDeleteLove it! "Don't Get Sicky with It"?!? Nearly fell off my chair! You'll have to show me how you made that launch on its own, Sue. I got a few odd looks from those around me when it started to play. I suppose your "crazy quilt" is a foreshadowing of your work in our present course -- scrap piles of disparate cloth in a mess on the floor or wherever and that masterpiece is what you'll end up with. I'm glad you have a vision of what to turn chaos into! Mine isn't so clear as yet....
