OOOOH! I like this!.
Coupa questions though:
this months book looks good. I’ll be picking it up in the next coupla days, but you don’t have target dates for the podcast or the start of the discussion on the blog page….. Would it be possible to add those so that I have an idea as to the timeframe for the discussion?
thanks a ton!

Kizz, I don’t know if I COULD take the class. I think I may be at the limit for adjuncts; anything more on my schedule would necessitate my being hired as “full time,” I think, and they’re not in a position to do that just now.
Bugs, I, too, love these classes. The topic is SO bendy-twisty; no one has the “right” answers and I love playing devil’s advocate for the students who think that abusive speech should be regulated. Maybe I’ll start up a “class discussion” here next week…
Seester, thanks! I’m not behaving this way in the hopes of getting good karma back – though that WOULD be nice. Nope, I’m trying to set a good example and live by the golden rule; I would want someone to be kind and helpful to me. If I can put a little good energy into the universe – just a little – I don’t feel quite so small and helpless .

Good Morning, Mrs Chili!
I agree with you on number 10 ~ building relationships is the key. Our campus is switching to a 7 period class day instead of 6, so I know that I will be quite relieved at the end of our first day.
Number 9 is always fun and my students appreciate the effort. They complain that other teachers don’t remember their name until halfway through the quarter.
I hope to hear the “ding” on August 27th!
