My More Than Full Time Job: It's all too much
http://morethanfulltime.blogspot.com/2011/05/its-all-too-much.html
My More Than Full Time Job. Notes from a teacher's desk. Sunday, May 15, 2011. It's all too much. Really is. My students will never remember or care about the test-prep lessons I am forced to teach. They will never benefit from 2 weeks of bubbling in circles on multiple choice questions. But they will never forget camp. And those staff members at camp being layed off? Amazing, dynamic, brilliant and innovative individuals that our short-sighted district can't even find a way to keep. Because YOU are not ...

http://morethanfulltime.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
My More Than Full Time Job. Notes from a teacher's desk. Monday, January 31, 2011. Being a teacher often means being a nerd. Who went to high school with me and lives not too far. Bethany. Who has lived in San Diego twice, but did not grow up here. And Sarah. From the UK and Australia, respectively. What a trip! Here are the rules:. What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house? What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball? What is the bubbly carbonated drink called? I know I'm...

My More Than Full Time Job: Something stinks in Wisconsin...and it ain't the cheese
http://morethanfulltime.blogspot.com/2011/02/something-stinks-in-wisconsinand-it.html
My More Than Full Time Job. Notes from a teacher's desk. Friday, February 18, 2011. Something stinks in Wisconsin.and it ain't the cheese. The anti-union movement in this country is coming to a head. In Wisconsin, the Legislature is primed to vote on legislation that, among other horrendous things, would limit collective bargaining rights to wage increases, and limit wage increases to inflation. In other words, unions would be dead. No more bargaining for fair and safe working conditions. It is a basic p...

My More Than Full Time Job. Notes from a teacher's desk. Thursday, May 19, 2011. Why Goodness Perpetuates Goodness. Or, The Good Fight, Part 1. There has been a movement brewing via facebook, word of mouth, and email, and largely driven and sponsored by the lovely and talented Barbara Schroeder, to get the building named after my legendary drama teacher, Jack Tygett. If you don't know who he is, I'm not going to wax poetic here because then this might be a book instead of a blog. But watch this. And, as ...

My More Than Full Time Job: I believe in red pens
http://morethanfulltime.blogspot.com/2011/02/i-believe-in-red-pens.html
My More Than Full Time Job. Notes from a teacher's desk. Friday, February 11, 2011. I believe in red pens. Aaaah New grading pens. My favorite. Specifically, I like the Pilot G-2 retractable with red ink. It glides across the paper, doesn't smear, and shines like a beacon of knowledge through a 7th grade paper of fog. Papers, Papers, Papers. That woman is a genius). Don't do this anymore! There is nothing quite so jarring as receiving an essay back that looks as though it's bleeding. I believe in red pens.

http://morethanfulltime.blogspot.com/2011/02/to-do-list.html
My More Than Full Time Job. Notes from a teacher's desk. Sunday, February 6, 2011.

The Courage for mine. Backpack and a B & B. Day 30 prompt for #reverbbroads11. Is: If you could go on a trip regardless of cost, where would you go and what would you see? I am cheating a little in the fact that my husband and I have our dream trip in mind. While reading a Backpacker magazine, Brent came upon several hiking routes through Wales. That enough was to peak my interest, but here’s the fun part. You stay at bed and breakfast inns along the way, and they shuttle your backpack. By Frances Englan...
