Can you believe a two-hour delay? That is what happened today. It was good because I was able to get more done in the way of paperwork and prepare for the onslaught after the holidays. Another teacher approached me about doing some work with The Odyssey. I have taught the book so I asked her about what did she want the students to learn from the exercise. Every teacher has different concepts he/she wants the students to learn from any piece of writing. I will await her ideas. I also have been updating the wiki and should have most of it done by Thanksgiving. It is so hard to believe that there are so many sites on there, and I know there are more to go. I also will send the resource around to all the teachers so they know what is available. I did also create a tutorial for youtube users. It has been a good day. Now, I am ready for the weekend. Oh, a side note, with the IT person leaving, I am noticing an increase in teachers calling me to fix problems. I do not want this to take my time, but I know that I am going to have to help out in this area until we get a new one. I do have a problem with a board freezing. I downloaded the new driver, but it did not cure then problem. I am not sure if it is a Vista problem or not so i had her try XP to see if it worked better. I will post to let people know. Have a great weekend......... Do svidaniya!!!!
