Status Report

A quick synopsis of things on my plate at the moment:

 

  • I’m planning the grade 10 trip to Sapa that’s coming up in a couple of weeks.
  • I’m working with MsMichetti to design/deliver an inservice to our fellow teachers about the new MYP Unit Planner. (Edit: I forgot this one first time through.)
  • I’ve got my Grade 10 Coordinator responsibilities to keep up with.
  • I’ve got MYP moderation samples to prepare.
  • Related to this, I’ve got quite a bit of marking coming in to allow me to finish up my MYP moderation.
  • I’ve got an MYP personal project that I’m supervising that needs finishing up.
  • I’ve got IB Math SL mock exams and exams coming up.
  • I’ve got a board presentation next Tuesday. (I’m not alone in this one but still…)
  • I’ve got 5 different preps to continue to plan and teach.
I’m going flat out at work, with no end in sight (at least until mid-April). I’ll make it to the end; I always do. But still…

    I hear you! Mad march it is! Sympathy being sent in your direction as I type. You can send some back too, because here is my current list of to dos:

    Master presentation due next Thurs

    Masters podcast due on Sat (2nd attempt since first was eaten by the monsters in my laptop and regurgitated in an unrecognizable fashion)

    Masters classes all day Sat

    IB Bio portfolios of lab work due for moderation

    G11/12 exams to prepare and mark

    Grading for end of Q3 coming up

    Ongoing planning and delivery of engaging lessons for my 3 preps

    Organization of HS TGIF

    Spend time with 2 children – at present I manage bath and story time and little else

    See husband occasionally

    THANK GOODNESS March break is coming up :)
    A much needed family vacation is in order.

    Oh boy. If I were to do this right now it would definitely come across as a major rant. So I think it’s best if I don’t….

    @Nadine I didn’t even include the family stuff that goes on. But that certainly adds a whole other layer of to-dos!

    @MsMichetti I hope I wasn’t too ranty. I was going for catharsis… And I forgot to add the MYP in-service you and I are helping to plan/deliver to the list!
