Getting Ready For School: Recordkeeping

'Perfect' Record Book? Sounds like famous last words.

With a little time to evaluate how to improve, here are some links with suggestions to make your teaching task easier. Recordkeeping can be a rather personal style choice, sometimes districts provide programs on your teacher computer. The last link, concerning parent-teacher communication, is an area of greatest need for improvement in general, by my observation.

6. Establishing effective record keeping
http://teachersnetwork.org/ntol/howto/align/c15768,.htm

It is my experience that when documenting parent communication teachers are least effective, maybe because communication by phone or text is frequently on the run away from desk computers or written record books. But it is very crucial to document all communication with parents.

The Answer, My Friend, Is...

Making a wish on a dandelion.

blowin' in the wind.

Peter, Paul and Mary Blowin' In The Wind 1966
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLcSpUC9_Jg 

 Written by Bob Dylan. The Greatest Rock Poet (in my opinion.)

 Blowin' in the Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes, how many times must a man look up
Before he can really see the sky?
Yes, how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Good Vibrations

Brian Wilson said he wanted to write a masterpiece--so he wrote this. Epic success.

 

 The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations (with lyrics on screen)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0yoiBYbT2I 

Good Vibrations

 I-I love the colorful clothes she wears
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
I hear the sound of a gentle word
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations (Oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (Good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations)

Close my eyes, she's somehow closer now
Softly smile, I know she must be kind
When I look in her eyes
She goes with me to a blossom world

I'm pickin' up good vibrations
She's giving me excitations (Oom bop bop)
I'm pickin' up good vibrations (Good vibrations, oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations)

(Ahh)
(Ah, my my, what elation)
I don't know where but she sends me there
(Oh, my my, what a sensation)
(Oh, my my, what elation)
(Oh, my my, what)

Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her
Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin'

(Ahh)

Good, good, good, good vibrations (Oom bop bop)
(I'm pickin' up good vibrations) (Oom bop bop)
She's giving me excitations (Excitations, oom bop bop)
Good, good, good, good vibrations

Na na na na na, na na na
Na na na na na, na na na (Bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
Do do do do do, do do do (Bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)
Do do do do do, do do do (Bop bop-bop-bop-bop, bop)

A Place To Turn Yourself Around

Something we all need from time to time.
From a long standing, classical tradition.

OMG! This looks like a sonnet!

Forsooth:

turneth thyself around

so mightily doeth oxygen abound

flushing rose red 

from foot to head

Thou cardio torrential stout

Tis truly what it is all about
