Nov. 5, 2007 - What I have learned this week
Whenever I am stressed, I curriculum plan. I have about 5 Five in a row units planned out for Mickey right now. I have the next five years planned out for the girls using three different curriculums! Can you tell I might be stressing just a bit? Breathe in, breathe out........
Much better now.
I have the latest issue of TOS sitting here waiting to be read. Maybe I should just go read it so that I can learn about all the wonderful new products and ditch the other three plans I made and come up with a new one! Ha! I have discovered a few things about myself lately. 1. I love to plan unit studies and buy literature based curriculum, but when it comes down to the nitty gritty every day, I'd rather have a textbook and a set goal for the day. 2. I hate science experiments. 3. High school science is going to require LABS!
I don't do labs. 4. There is a new portable DVD player that has a 12 hour battery life. Buying it and doing DVDs for high school sounds really, really, really good to me some days. Plus I could send in all the work for them to grade and then I am no longer the bad guy!
