The Malicious Monocle

Today I get to teach the second of the three lessons I have to teach before student teaching starts next year. I’m teaching a combo lesson that covers both science and literacy. I have my snazzy power points ready and I’ll be printing a bunch of stuff out in just a moment. Right now my biggest concern is keeping them engaged for the class. I’ll be teaching the same lesson three times over today to get some hours in and get a bit more experience with modifying on the fly.

I ‘m sure ALL of my loyal readers, even the Orwellians, are wishing me well today.

For the first time in a while I looked up some old Sociology stuff last night. I confirmed that Isolation is one of seven methods that can be used. It doesn’t mean anything on it’s own, but if it is combined with a couple of the others it can take a very severe meaning. I like what I do and I like that I will soon be a teacher. There are still times I wish I didn’t have some of the info that exists in my head that has to be there when considered a Man. Rep.. Enough of that though.

This Friday Adverb is hosting a get together to help the class relax and kill off a brain cell or two each. It should be nice. Everyone won’t be there, but it will hopefully still be fun.

I’ve been so focused on school work I haven’t had a chance to get any scribbling done on the Monocle. That will be corrected soon.
