If so, follow me!
Does anyone else think Twitter would be a fun resource to use in a language classroom? Express yourself in 140 characters or less… makes you stretch your vocab muscles!
I also want to find a way to incorporate Six-Word Stories into my language class. These, however, are projects that will have to wait until later on in the semester. Once my head resurfaces from underwater.
I wrote the following “To-Do List” Saturday morning, then hit “Save” instead of “Publish” (because I’m brilliant like that). You can see how much I have accomplished since then… although I should acknowledge the fact that I planned out what I was going to teach in Sunday school this morning, and had a semi-successful lesson (I did get to say a thing or two about prayer in between all the stories about my new baby sister and my dog ate a bug and I went to see a movie yesterday and look at my dress, it’s pretty and I can sing a song do you want to hear it here it is!)
This weekend:
- get caught up on grading (*edit* though by no means “caught up,” I did grade the level one quizzes yesterday)
- create an innovative, inspiring, intrinsically-motivating compare/contrast two video news clips in the target language lesson for my upper-level classes
- find relevant assignments for my upper-level classes to use the class blog I made them set up
- organize lessons for my level-ones
- play with Google Reader and organize my blogs
- write at least five pages (of the 15 more I need) of my Master’s dissertation
This week:
- be involved in Homecoming activities
- attend a football game, which I have told my students I was going to do the last two home games
- create and turn in the Emergency Lesson Plans I should have turned in two weeks ago
