Well, after a long LONG week, we are finally on the home stretch! I turned in my lesson plans and took a quiz this morning, and now I am going to take a deep breath and relax. The stress is subsiding and I can finally think about the weekend as though it is actually coming. Today was a big day. About two weeks ago we were assigned a group project with five members in our group, each of us specializing in teaching different things. We were told to create a unit for students incorporating all five of our specialties...WOW was that a chore. We had Spanish, English, P.E., Math, and Ag Ed. Could you get any more different!? Finally, we decided to do a unit on Don Quijote de la Mancha and a camping trip with the same theme....wow was that complicated. Last night as we were supposed to start putting it together, when we realized one of our group members was out of town. That left us to pick up the slack....I worked until 12:30 this morning to finish lesson plans, and this morning we put it together. It all came together in the end and I am so thankful that its over and the weekend is coming. After I make it through my night class I will be able to relax. What lesson did I learn from all this? I don't know...I am too tired to reflect on it any more. What I should have learned is not to procrastinate (Dad that was for you), old habits die hard though.
