Well, the good news is that the Renfaire is over, so I get my weekends back. I'm looking forward to being able to sleep in for the first time in October.
The not-so-good news is that I've been ready and waiting to start email exchanges, but I don't have any lists of students in my corresponding classes, so I don't have anyone yet to email to. I've sent my lists to the classes in both France and Belarus about two weeks ago, and I dropped them a reminder last week.
Maybe the lesson here is to seize the time, and ride the initial burst of enthusiasm, even if the technical problems aren't fully ironed out.
Hopefully, I'll have better news next time.
About Me
- Bob Esty
- I am a Montessori Upper Elementary teacher at the Barrie School, a small, nonsectarian, private school in Silver Spring, Maryland. I've been teaching for 18 years and counting. I've also taught in Barrie's Middle School as a 6th and 7th grade Humanities teacher. This is my second career, after ten years in government. I'm making a effort to re-start this blog after an absence of some time as a personal reflection on education.
