Lesson Plans
For the last two days I have been writing lesson plans for the unlucky soul who subs for me during my maternity leave. My two classes next semester are AP Calculus and Honors Algebra II. I have not taught either ever. 🙂I’ve taught regular Algebra II, so I know the material. I just don’t know […]
Christmas Vacation!!
Today marks the first day of Christmas Vacation. (Winter break, to be politically correct). Whatever. I’m off of school until January 2nd and that’s pretty sweet. We finally did move on Wednesday. It was MADNESS. There were random kids roaming everywhere. We moved my entire trailer in about 20 minutes. Twenty-eight eager (to not do […]
