english teacher: January 2007
http://bigsbytiggs.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 30, 2007. My blog - super8mama.livejournal.com. Has been on hiatus since November 30th. This week marks the beginning of a new semester both in my teaching and in my schooling. It seems a convenient time to return to my writing. I blogged all my lesson plans for a couple of months. but in November during NaNoWriMo. I eliminated that from my workload to clear the way for the novel. Posted by Salome Milstead. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Teaching to Change the World. View my complete profile.

Wednesday, February 20, 2008. We FINALLY began reading today. I also assigned homework - the kids asked for 20 points for doing it. Seemed reasonable. I like letting them choose the points they get for their work. It's a vocab worksheet. We'll see how this comes out. Most kids haven't brought in binders. I have several extras so I think I'll just give them to the kids and not give them points. Oh, and most every student read their do now out loud. That was fantastic. We need more of this.

Adolescent Bastards: July 2007
http://adolescentbastards.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 13, 2007. Time Spent Reading Versus Time Spent Speaking. I live within this unending equation. To read? What does it mean to experience mentally? Can you live after dwelling in a mental moment? Can you reflect on reflection? All of those books that wait for me. That I will one day wade through, or not wade through. That I will pick up and carry around and hope to one day live through. Friday, July 6, 2007. Have You Been To The Woods Recently? Ralph "Where is Waldo" Emerson,. I love living vi...

Adolescent Bastards: January 2007

Wednesday, January 31, 2007. Fast forward twenty years and imagine. I've been teaching for three weeks now and I'm enjoying it. It ain't easy, and some days I'm exhausted after my two classes (not the five I get to look forward to in the future) but it feels like the right fit for me. Today, I had to bring the sophmores down to the computer lab for a career choices survey. It was good to help the sophmores learn about their own interests through a 180 question survey.

english teacher: April 2007
http://bigsbytiggs.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 23, 2007. One of the things that have influenced this is something I read regarding the shooter in the Virginia Tech incident. When he read aloud in his English class (undoubtedly he was required to do so), classmates ridiculed his accent and told him to go back to China. I wondered when I read this, where were the adults in all of the bullying he edured? Posted by Salome Milstead. Tuesday, April 10, 2007. 10th Grade Honors English. Posted by Salome Milstead.

Adolescent Bastards: April 2007
http://adolescentbastards.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 15, 2007. Four and a half weeks left. And then the program ends. What will we do with ourselves when we have completed this educational boot camp? Will we march headlong into the abyss that is the teaching profession? Will we recover our sanity? Will we be prepared for that first time a classroom belongs to us, and not our master teachers? Will we be prepared for five classes and 150 students? Will we fall prey to the statistical probability of burnout? How long will we remain idealistic?
