It is like some spirit is looking down on me saying, "Lucas, you need another day..." Well thank you! I hope those of you who too are out today are enjoying and being productive, and those of you in today - best wishes. Lucas 2008-01-22T12:18:21-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/12/nearing_the_end.html I am incredibly sorry that I have not written in so long. As I previously mentioned before – I have gotten into a groove. This is a good groove – I finally feel like a real teacher (even though the ladies in the cafeteria at school still try to charge me $2.25 instead of $3….What’s your number hun?). Lucas 2007-12-01T10:47:34-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/10/greetings_pre_c.html Good Evening Friends - This week has been crazy for me! With the end of our nine weeks, I have transactive pieces to grade, open responses to finish, final exams (for my 9 week class), quizzes, tests, and all sorts of other obligations. Does it ever stop? Lucas 2007-10-09T21:50:51-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/09/oktoberfest.html The anticipation is growing as we prepare for Oktoberfest. Our celebration will last two days - day one being an outdoor festival type day with soccer, football, frisbee, and sack races - day two being indoors with German food.... Lucas 2007-09-19T11:41:26-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/09/wow_i_feel_good.html For the strangest most unknown reason - I have a new passion for teaching. The long holiday break - plus me catching a horrible illness (out for one day) - has made me excited!... Lucas 2007-09-05T09:00:26-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/08/day_whatever_te.html Is it just me or does this gig take a lot out of a person? I get home around 4:30 or 5:00 everyday (except those days I have mandatory 3 hours workshops because some kids can't read), eat some dinner,... Lucas 2007-08-29T21:27:20-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/08/teaching_days_f.html I guess every other teacher in the school had assigned books on the first day - and because I did not - the students were a little stressed out. Lucas 2007-08-22T08:55:27-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/08/teaching_day_th.html At this point, I feel that I am getting used to being a teacher. Lucas 2007-08-14T11:28:43-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/08/teaching_day_tw.html My second day of teaching was much better than the first. I was more prepared, more rested, well fed, and not so nervous. Lucas 2007-08-13T11:26:51-05:00 http://www.kwla-online.org/members/bulletins/archives/2007/08/teaching_day_on.html ...and they all left the class saying, “Auf Wiedersehen Herr Gravitt!” I knew my day was complete.
