Here's my story. Today I worked at the learning center for three hours. I have a new three-year-old student who's mother wants him to learn how to read and write before he goes to school. I am using a kindergarten reading/writing series with him. He's so bright; he already knows his letters but his fine motor skills have not developed yet. May I suggest playdough! He could have fun and strengthen his fingers at the same time so that he can hold a pencil. This is frustrating for me, but I'll do the best job that I can. The other two hours were spent on the floor with a range of age groups from 8 - 17. They all have different programs and I never feel right about spreading myself too thin. I do the best that I can. It's frustrating and tiring.
Today I made a treck to the MSU bookstore only to find out that they had the lenses book but not the conversations book. They were very nice and ordered the book for me but it may take a week to come in. Oh well. When I got home, the message on my machine frustrated me even more. They found 8 copies of the book somewhere else in the bookstore, but it was already too late for me to drive 45-60 minutes back to MSU. It would be closed by then. What should I do??
Plan B: After work tomorrow, drive to MSU, pray the book is still there, do PD speed reading and speed writing at the college tech lab. Let's hope that I have a wonderful Wednesday.
Tomorrow I start the enrichment summer program in my district. I'm excited about teaching creative writing, journalism, and drama.
Now it's time to read 2 of 3 articles and answer questions on my blob. I still can't download the Times article. They want to charge me $4.95.
Was anyone able to get the Times article somewhere else?? Please help me.
