Teaching doesn't stop at school. Well working on it doesn't anyway. I am sitting here currently creating lesson plans to get me through the next week. While these are great and all, my main reason for doing them like I am right now is to give them to my mentor teacher. She wants copies of them for one week to show I am capable of doing it. All it's proving right now is that it's taking away too much time from my kids. But whatever, I will do whatever I have to to make people happy. I think I need to email her the long range plans too at some point but right now I'm concentrating on this. I'm sure she'll hate it just like everything else I do. But whatever. I know what I'm doing and I'm sick of hearing that I'm not doing a good job. Parents keep telling me different and so I'm doing what I feel is best for the students.
Our house hasn't had anyone look at it yet. But it's only been 2 weeks. I hope something happens sometime soon though just to give me some peace of mind. I am scared I'm going to be stuck here another year. If that happens then so be it, but I'm not looking forward to it. I hate the idea of Chris living in Georgia alone and without anyone there. But we will still have the weekends so I guess that is okay when he gets back from Iraq.
My kids are doing well but they are not getting along with one another. My oldest and middle fight worse than any siblings I have ever seen. It drives me insane. I wish they could just get along. I'm not looking forward to my youngest getting to be that age and joining in.
