November Currently

Fashionably late is what I'm calling this...but I couldn't miss a Currently with Farley at Oh Boy 4th Grade! 


Listening:
I love this song and can't get enough of it! I wasn't a huge fan of her first song, but this one is awesome!

Loving:
*Disclaimer*: I am a summer girl. I like it hot. I'd like to wear flip flops year round. However, I have to admit that the cooler temps are pretty nice once in a while. It isn't cold here yet so I'm still happy. Here in NM, we get 50 Shades of Brown during the winter and it is just depressing!

Thinking:
I'm ready. Right? What do I have to worry about? I'm a great teacher, gosh darn it! So why am I worrying? Oh yeah. It's that kid. The one who knows how to throw a wrench into the best lesson? You know what I'm talking about....

Wanting:
Conferences are coming in 3 weeks. I dread writing report cards and my district has changed them YET AGAIN this year. I just wish there was a magic app that could automatically enter my grade book scores onto the report card. How hard could that be????

Needing:
We haven't had one day since the beginning of October that the entire family was healthy. My oldest is still recovering from pneumonia and a nasty cough and now the hubs is sick, which is actually worse than the kids being sick. Sigh.

Reading:
Ha! I am in the middle of Allegiant, but I haven't read in a few weeks. I'd like to read, but there are more pressing things to do like watching Sons of Anarchy, Scandal, and my new favorites, Red Band Society and Scorpion. I really do love to read but my worn out brain just craves some down time. I read like a mad woman during breaks to make up for my lack of school year reading. Unless you count reading student work...which I think you should.

  1. Good luck during your observation tomorrow!!!! I hope that student is absent ;) but even if he isn't, kids somehow know to act good when someone else is watching!! Plus, it does look good if you get a chance to show up your classroom behavior management plans!

  2. You're not late– I posted AFTER you :) I hear ya on the changes to the report card. Ours are never the same two years in a row, and we already know about NEXT year's. sigh. I'm gonna post on a conference idea or two on Friday. Maybe it will help you do yours. And the only time I read for pleasure during the school year is ten minutes before I turn out the light. It distracts me from the day and I sleep better. And I do slowly get through books! I figure I deserve ten minutes a day. Nice to meet you! See you around. Kathleen Kidpeople Classroom
