Goals for Next Week

My email to Terry:

Hi Terry,

Goals
1. To get/earn/demand some respect. I have started ENTIRELY too nice, too easy, too laid back and I'm really paying for it now. I don't feel like the students do what I tell them to unless I force them or stand over their shoulders. Big double ugh, as far as that's concerned.
2. Finish working on my LAMP materials and get that submitted by the end of next weekend.
3. Keep working on my portfolio. I think it's coming along nicely. :)
4. To look over all our books, etc. and make sure that I have my ducks in a row.
5. To schedule the last benchmark conferences. Tim and I have been so busy and it keeps getting pushed aside.
6. The newspaper needs to be finished by Monday or I'm going to do something drastic like cut the size in half or something and everyone that isn't done is getting the boot. I can't believe it came to this. Deadlines seem to mean nothing to my students right now.

As always, you can read my reflections on brittanyisateacher.blogspot.com.
