I always start the week off right, but the week never ends as I hope. This week was a frenzy of grading portfolios. I stayed late at school on Thurs. to grade, went to Caleb's Christmas program, and then went to bed. Woke up early on Friday, was at school by 5:30, graded until quitting at 5. Grades were due at 3 Friday. I didn't finish till noon on Saturday. It was my tactical error--this year I added a speech component to the senior final and that (+ an unproductive snowday on Monday) left me with less time than normal to finish. These miles were halfhearted, but I felt that I needed to do them. |
