Today has been a worker day. First thing, I finished up the Inbox Ideas section on Summer Reading (
rough copy). It will go out tomorrow afternoon.
I updated and edited
a calendar entry on Yusef Komunyakaa. It had been cut because we had already included the maximum number of entries planned for April. But given that we now have a Vietnam lesson plan and American troops left
Vietnam 30 years ago this week, I wanted it back in the rotation.
After that, I edited
A Bear of a Poem: Composing and Performing Found Poetry. It was a fairly clean lesson, so the process of editing, marking it up, and loading it on the site wasn't time consuming.
Most people would have quit at that point, but that wasn't enough for me. I wrote
Developing Reading Plans to Support Independent Reading. Really, it's an idea that I dreamed up Sunday, and my colleagues encouraged me to get it written because it fits well with the Summer Reading Inbox entry. So this evening, while watching
SpongeBob and
The Daily Show, I wrote it and marked it up. Then I went back and added it to the Inbox draft.
Now, surely, it's time for bed. If I keep working like this, I won't have anything to do tomorrow.
