Weekly Goals 12/1

The three weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas Break are always nuts.  There are MAP tests to be taken, essays to grade, assemblies, concerts, etc.  I'm making a real effort to stay more organized this year, and to make sure that I really grade authentically (another post on that soon!).  I really find that setting goals for each week, both with my students and my own life, help me stay on top of things.  This week my goals are:

1.) Have all my students' essays graded by Friday-MAP testing should allow me time to do this so I don't have to spend all my free time grading.  

2.) Get a tree topper for the tree- I didn't think my tree was that big until we got it home.  Needless to say, we have to find a bigger one.  You can barely even see the one I bought a couple years ago.

3.) Speaking of trees....I need to put up my classroom tree and set out all my decorations

4.) Finish the bulletin board outside of my room

5.) Clean out my desk!  The sub for my maternity leave made my desk her own, which is totally fine...but my OCD can't handle it.

 

I think that's about all I can handle this week.  Oh, and I want to be sure to track on WW every day.  My big goal is to lose 30 pounds by my 30th birthday in May.  I got this!
