Cooler in the AM

Its really getting to be Fall.

When I walk to Starbucks in the morning it is cool. There is very little residual heat from the night before. That usually means at least a sub 90 degree high day.

This weekend I put together some lesson plans for the week. We are going to be working on the vocabulary of grocery stores. The today we are working on the areas of Meat, Deli, Bakery, and Dairy.

I also worked up a plan for in case I would not be able to get some lesson plans to the office. We are working to be a school with that kind of backup. Planning is good.. specific planning is another issue. Part of education is the artistry of teachers planning and executing their own plans. Unfortunately educational planners see that this is the way they can strengthen the push toward No Child Left Behind.. NCLB for short.

Life goes on.

Mom and Dad seem happy in Colorado. They had a big adventure up over the mountain. Dad "shook hands" with about 10 fish and caught a little one that he returned to Crystal Springs lake. They ate at their favorite chili spot up on the mountain and had an ice cream on the way down to their Cederidge art stops. Pretty cool. Their Chrysler LHX did a wonderful job taking on Grand Mesa.

Have a great Monday!
