Slicing every day in March!! This is a short post. The day just got away from me. In fact, I almost forgot to write a slice. We had company for lunch, but that was 8 hours ago. Our company just left. We ate. We talked. We laughed. And, then we ate some more. Now, it's time for a Saturday night movie with my husband and son. To wind down. To relax. To get warm and cozy. Tomorrow is Sunday. It feels like the weekend went too fast. I lugged too many books home from school. I had a too long list of things I wanted to accomplish. Yes, I still have Sunday, but I want to chill out on Sunday. I will set a to do list with a few reasonable goals. Then, I'll check off as many items as I can get done. Maybe I'll ignore emails. And Facebook. And Twitter. I'll build in time to wind down before Monday comes around. Seems like a plan. I just hope I can stick to it.
This blog is a place to ruminate on the problems of teaching. If I am thinking thoughtfully, my posts will hopefully raise more questions than answers. By problematizing teaching we reflect on those questions that are constantly behind, in front, and at center of everything we do in the classroom. Feel free to comment. I'd love to hear what other teachers are thinking about on these and other issues. Cheers! Elisa
