Chris took a break from study to pick up the truck (needed a new starter...) and on his way back to work he stopped by real fast to drop off a space heater and movies.

Thought I am at school at this time in the morning (head in after dropping the husband off at the bus) this is evening. This is when my delivery came. |

I held seven conferences on Friday afternoon. BOY did that 20 minutes go by fast! I scheduled 10 minutes between conferences and I did not have one of those breaks, just went straight through from parent to parent. Having student evidence addressing each state standard completely took the pressure off. I also used this handy dandy form to highlight and address classroom behavior, just highlighted the areas appropriate for the students and that directed the conversation.
