Twice in one day

I have been sitting in a dark room full of computers all day. I have learned to edit sound, and to podcast. Make sure you visit next week so that you can see my super duper podcast. It will have sound and everything.

I hope my students haven't destroyed my room while I was away. I am sure things went fine. I hope. My biggest fear is that the sub pulled a muscle doing pantomime for the esl kids and I find her trapped behind my desk in the morning. Maybe Harley the custodian will find her before I do.

The Fog is Rolling In

Welcome to Fog of Teaching. I am a high school American Studies teacher in Salt lake City Utah. Today I am away from my classroom learning about how to blog. Hooray, today at school we are doing standardized test makeups. By the time the kids actually get to my classes their little brains might be fried. I am sure everyone understands how important these tests are. Of course if you don't pass your life might end. I hate these tests. They devalue the educational process for the students.

I am a bit nervous about leaving them with a sub, especially my ESL American History class. They are learning about colonial America and I highly doubt the sub will be as willing as I am to do pantomime.
