Diagnostics

Grading diagnostics can be really overwhelming. It really helps put the amount of work I have to do into perspective. Yes, I am speaking of the general science skills variety of test, not the do this complicated chemistry problem you have never seen before type of test.

In other news…

I have planning periods!!!! 5 days a week! My principal created a new schedule that will work out pretty well for me. (I think… And hope!)  Two of my classes were combined to help make this happen, but is is almost an average sized class since enrollment is low for that grade.

I love the teachers and fellow CMs at my school this year! And having a partner (and fellow CM) in the science department is amazing! He is arguably much more helpful to me than I am to him with all my vast (heh) second year knowledge.

I spent the weekend working at the TFA office and am still behind. So much for organization 2nd year. But lesson planning is so much more enjoyable with fellow CMs around.

I still am trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. No update there. Still confused.
