Slicing every day in March!!! Exhausted. That's my predominant feeling tonight. I just got back from a TGIF at my principal's house. There was food, laughter and great company. As soon as I got home I took a hot shower and I got into my PJ's. I realized I hadn't drunk any water all day. I filled a tall glass. I grabbed my computer. I sat down to write this post. Exhausted. We still have three weeks left of school before Spring Break. I need to hang on for a little while longer. It shouldn't be a chore because my class and I are on a roll. And, I plan to do everything I can to keep it that way. Exhausted. I feel as if I'm slowly fading away. Sleep beckons me. Good night.
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
