cRaZy WeEk!

This is one crazy week - regular school days and lesson plans and grades to do, I'm conducting TFA phone interviews, and I have this crazy Grad School class that isn't over yet!

I am getting really exhausted and tired and irritable!

However, we started our circle unit this week and I am very happy with it so far!

I passed out Progress Reports to the students yesterday and made about 8 students cry - it was bad. I have designed an Extra Credit packet for them to complete - but, I will not be reminding them or hounding them for it - it is their responsibility. I gave a 15 minute speech yesterday to each class about how getting anything below a "B" in 6th grade is absolutely unacceptable and inexcusable.

I will be applying to work for TFA this summer and really hope I get it!

The cats are crazier than ever and are breaking tons of crap.

On Monday night, I woke up because Isabelle bit my face and was sitting on my chest meowing at me so that I would pet/play with her. I pushed her off the bed and whispered/yelled at her. She ran away and then wouldn't leave me alone when I actually woke up and went to the bathroom.

That is all the updates for now! :)
