Very Productive

Today I sat myself down and cranked out three weeks of lesson plans for Spanish 2.  I had all sorts of excuses not to do them, but today I ignored the excuses and sat down to work.  I set a goal and I achieved it!  It was too damned hot to do anything outside, anyway, so I stayed in and worked.  Even if the new teachers don't use my plans (and why wouldn't they?), I have them to use for myself!  I was amazed at the amount of explanation and prep these lessons took.  It's one thing to write a list of activities on a page.  It is quite another to assemble and copy everything the activities will require to make them happen.  

Tomorrow I will go through a final edit and upload them.  Maybe I will upload them all, but more likely I will only get to about half.  Still plenty of time before the new school year starts.  I would like to do it tonight, but I think I need some time away from my work so I can look at it with a fresh perspective.

For the record, the project so far has taken about twice the amount of time the district is willing to pay me for!
