PM: 9.5 eliptical miles and 1 mile row.

We had a frustrating professional development day at school - no students. Everything has to be common (lessons, pacing, assessments etc.) and AI is the essence of existence. Two more years will test my powers of passive aggression and civil disobedience.

I'm proud of my 30 year teaching career and my 24 years at Alta High but there used to be so much more space for individual initiative and creativity in teaching. I suspect that in the future we will have fewer truly bad teachers but also fewer great teachers.

61st birthday today. Here's what I plan to do...  Attend a 504 meeting, write two letters of rec for students, teach 3 U.S. History classes, stay late for students to re-take tests they sucked on last week, do 61 consecutive push-ups, listen to all of Jeff Tweedy's new triple album, hike/run up Grandeur Peak, do whatever activities my family might have scheduled although Ann is working a long day and my kids probably forgot it's my birthday.
