Confession: There have been times that I’ve spent so much time decorating my classroom for the new year that I ended up behind in planning my lessons.
It all got done, of course, but only by taking it home to finish. (The room, of course, I couldn’t take home with me, but probably would’ve if I could’ve.)
Well, I can’t live that way anymore, see.
So today, my first day back in my classroom, I spent time arranging furniture and organizing my desk, clearing out the junk.
But I didn’t draw a brand-new poster for outside my door as usual.
Instead, I took the wrinkled one that I made last year and cut out the words.
It still looks pretty cool, and no one will notice the difference.
A small step but it’s something. :P
