We are nearing the end of the first quarter of school and I am spending time reflecting about the strategies that have been effective and new ones I want to try. We have adjusted to the daily routine and I am now focusing on individual needs. Everything that must be accomplished over the next three quarters can sometimes be overwhelming, to say the least.
As I dedicate so much of my time, inside and outside of school, I am torn with the tasks of preparing lesson plans and meeting the demands of a school system that holds a high level of accountability. Even though everything I must do seems to be more than my plate can hold, I know I must go on the field and give everything I have to give. The game is not over until the end of the fourth quarter. The focus is the students and their achievement so I will go on the field and fight for their chance to succeed. I know I sound like a coach talking to his team. . .I think I am coaching myself!
