A week before teacher in-service begins, I look back on the two and half months of freedom I had this summer. Where did it go? What did I do? I think that I feel victim again to the time suck of curriculum updates. I love changing my curriculum and utilizing new ideas and I become eager to tackle all of those projects during that expansive time I have from June-August. However, while I did go on a vacation or two, I don't think I gave myself enough time to relax. I spent most days at some point in the day in front of my school computer at home working on at least one of my classes. Creating semester plans, new resources, updated assignments, improved instructional days, etc. took up the better part of a morning almost every day this summer.
