I am a bad blogger. I would like to appologize to those of you who have been checking my blog and finding nothing new. I'm new to this whole blogging thing and still haven't got the hang of it.

Moving on.

So, I think I need to be a harder teacher. I say this because I work at an alternative school for kids who have been long-term suspended or expelled and today I found out we are getting another repeat offender. His intake was today and he told the social worker he was really excited to come back.

I feel that if I make my class harder (more work load, including homework) maybe kids will not want to come back.

Probably not the case but whatever, I'm totally working on that for next semester. I am going to treat each class as though it's an Advanced Placement or Honors class and see what happens.

Also there are only 14 days left in the semester. I am NOT going to get through all my curriculum in 11th or 12th grades! What did I do this semseter? Where did all the time go? How did I get so far behind? I am FREAKING out! I have to pack so much in the next few weeks that I can barely

I guess I could use these three weeks as practice for next semseter and my new 'honors' class idea.

On a sadder note, my favorite student (I know, I know I shouldn't have a favorite but I do, sue me) is leaving after two semesters with us. It's going to be weird without him there.

I promise I will start blogging more, I hope I don't bore you all too much.
