School’s Out For Summer

Todd — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 14:13:26 +0000

Here we are again, summer time. School is out and everyone is busy making their plans. I just fininished my assignment last week. I teach school, but have duty one week after the kids get out of school. So here I am with a whole week ahead of me with nothing to do, I wish. It seems your schedule gets filled even if you don’t fill it, what do I mean?

Here is an example:

Church youth projects
Nephew in town from Tucson
Missy, my wife, is out of town, so I have house duty, yuck
Chyrsallis prep
Air conditioning is out
Finishing up home financing
Fix son’s truck
Fix wife’s car

And the list goes on and on. But, the great thing about being a teacher is, I do have the summer to get some stuff done, here is hoping I do some fun stuff as well. Gotta run, the five year old just said, “I’m hungry” and she waits for no man.

Leave your comments with your summer plans.

Teaching history can be a very difficult task in today’s environment, EVEN if you are Jerry Seinfield!

Do Schools Kill Creativity?

As a school teacher killing creativity would be an awful by-product of my classroom. Our goal is to teach information, but more importantly, inspire students to be creative, life-long learners.
