March Check-in and Buona Pasqua!

I know, I know. Where the heck have I been? I promised that I would update regularly. I just never realized how much work English is. Good Lord, we have been struggling under thousands of papers in the past two months. So much testing prep! I wonder why we don't start testing prep at the beginning of the year. Being completely honest, we all know that testing is now the "big thing" in education. I think my goal for next year is to be on the testing committee and start suggesting these things. We need to stop waiting until the last minute to "prep" our students and start this at the beginning of the year and work towards it. That's what we are SUPPOSED to be doing anyways. So incredibly frustrating.

Anyways, this week is Spring Break for my school district as well as the Cherry Blossom Festival. I will post some pictures of the festival next Friday when I go! Buona Pasqua to all of my readers that celebrate Easter!
