I am very proud of myself so far. If you look in the dictionary under the word procrastinator, you will see a picture of me next to the definition. I have always been a last minute Joe. I still have two days till class and I think I am done with my weekly assignments. I have read and posted about the Washington Post article, I have done my weekly e-scan and responded, and I am now doing my blog. I need to reread about the web pages though because I am totally confused. I read it late, so maybe if I read it during the daylight hours it will make more sense to me. I also have looked at some of my other assignments so I do not get too far behind. My mom would faint if she knew I was ahead of the game. I have many days planned for my practicum hours so I may soon get behind.
I am looking forward to class this weekend. I enjoyed working with Excel and creating the gradebook. I wish there was more time to study the program and do other types of calculations and projects. I know that my former principal used it frequently to create charts and keep track of the progress students were making with their yearly testing. Our new principal is not as data driven as my former principal, so I am having to do my own charts and tracking. I know Excel would be great for helping me do this. I may need to take a class specifically on Excel once the program is over. I assume from the reading that we are going to start working on our web pages this weekend. As much as this scares me, I am excited about seeing how to create one. We use Sharepoint in Williamson County, and I haven't really had the time to play around and become comfortable with it yet. I hope with this class, I will have the courage to go in and create a new and wonderful web page for my upcoming parents and students.

Hey,
Look at my post time =-)
I have you beat in the procrastination area this week.
I am also glad we will be presenting together on the project in this class. Hopefully having you up-front with me will help keep me at ease. Did you notice how bad I was shaking during my presentation in our last course? I was pittiful!
I will be honest. I do not think doing the reading during the daytime will help. I was saying today during lunch that I was worried sick when he said get a paper out for the test. The reading was like in Greek to me!
