There are many exciting things for me next year. Some of which I may have mentioned in previous posts but to summerize... since the time is drawing near(er) each day:
1. I am excited that BHS will have a new principal. Nothing against the old one accept that he was a science guy and I always put or felt more... pressure somehow... on myself because of it! Also the high school hasn't had an administrator OUTSIDE of Barnum.. like new, new... for 15 years. So its tiime to shake things up a bit!
2. I am excited about my CLEAN SLATE, GUTTED room. Everything old is out and the new awaits.
3. I am excited about only teaching TWO classes.
3 sections of 10th grade Biology and...
3 sections of 7th grade Life Science!
In my ten year carreer I have never taught ONLY two... 5, 4, or 3 at least!! I wonder if Ill like it?
4. I am excited for my AR. Specifically the idea of asking more essential questions and using INQUIRY
style teaching. Will it work? Will I be able to do it? Will I see improvements in my students? I hope.
5. And also, I simply love the START of the year. Im excited... and there not. But soon... I trick them!! :)
Looks like a lot of positive changes will be taking place. I also dream of the day when I might be only teaching 2 or 3 classes.
