Summer List

Now that it's June, I'm realizing that I require to laid some goals for what I desire to attain this summertime earlier it's of a precipitous August as well as the back-to-school frenzy begins.

Next week, Shaun as well as I are keeping busy alongside math-y things.  We're help our local math teachers' circle's summertime immersion workshop Monday-Wednesday.  I'm excited for a peril to pass a few days talking math as well as working through challenging problems alongside other math teachers.  The workshop is at a beautiful retreat, as well as then the scenery volition live a process equally well.  Plus, the fact that I acquire to do things similar this alongside my hubby is awesome.

On Fri of this week, we'll live help the OCTM (Oklahoma Council of Teachers of Mathematics) Summer Conference.  I'm looking forwards to help presentations as well as picking upwards creative ideas to implement inwards my classroom adjacent year.  I'll live certain to spider web log nearly whatsoever awesomeness I alternative up!

Another big excogitation for this summertime is to get got a trip.  Following our wedding, Shaun as well as I spent a few nights inwards Oklahoma City (about an hr away from Drumright) alongside plans to get got a "summer honeymoon" in ane lawsuit schoolhouse was out.  We've confirmed that nosotros yet desire to get got this trip, but nosotros get got no persuasion where nosotros desire to go.  We *think* nosotros desire to proceed driving to a minimum, but nosotros also similar the persuasion of spending some fourth dimension at the beach.  Living inwards Oklahoma way these are quite reverse to ane another.  So, if you lot get got whatsoever bully opor-garai ideas, locomote out a comment below!

What else do I desire to accomplish?  I shout back I'll resort to a listing forthwith since I titled this post "Summer List" as well as it's only turning out to live a collection of paragraphs.

* Complete SBG science lists for each dependent land I'm teaching adjacent year. [Algebra 1 is done!]

* Write all my quizzes for each dependent land I'm teaching adjacent year.  I did this for Algebra 1 as well as (most of) Algebra 2 lastly summer, as well as it was a HUGE life saver.  

* Of course, both of these hinge on this: Figure out what subjects I'm teaching adjacent year!

* Put together a custom planner for adjacent year. [Already inwards the works!]

* Start reading more!  I love reading, but grad schoolhouse got me out of the habit of reading regularly (unless you lot count reading educational magazine articles nearly integer operations.)  If you lot get got whatsoever bully majority recommendations, I'll get got them, too.  Please. [I'm keeping a pinterest board of my recent reads.]  

* Decorate as well as organize my new classroom.

* Put together equally comprehensive equally possible of a listing of practise structures for the math classroom.  [Contribute to this projection here!]

* Finish changing my shout alongside the handful of places I haven't yet.

* Keep blogging regularly.  This should encourage me to proceed thinking nearly ideas for the upcoming schoolhouse year.  

* Work on getting into amend shape.  I downloaded the Runkeeper app lastly week.  And, Shaun has agreed to acquire running alongside me.  Okay, it's to a greater extent than similar 95% walking, 2.5% running, as well as 2.5% whining that I'm sooooooooooo out of shape.  We went run/walking for the foremost fourth dimension on Saturday.  It was tough.  I complained.  A lot.  But, I know it'll acquire easier the longer I stick alongside it.  A dyad of years ago, I made a list of goals that included running a 5k.  At this point, I only desire to experience to a greater extent than agree as well as live able to run for to a greater extent than than a infinitesimal without collapsing.  

* Organize/Declutter my house.  After living past times myself for almost 4 years, the procedure of combining households afterward spousal human relationship has been interesting.  I desire our theatre to experience to a greater extent than similar "our house" than "my theatre that Shaun's moved into."  I shout back Shaun powerfulness appreciate some to a greater extent than cupboard space, too.  ;)

* Try out novel recipes.  During the schoolhouse year, I tend to autumn dorsum on cooking the same quondam favorites.  I'm ever bookmarking novel recipes to try.  I desire to genuinely endeavour them now!  Some recent novel recipes I've tried: Quinoa Taco Meat, Moist Chocolate Cake (SOOOO expert inwards 2 layers alongside homemade whipped cream betwixt as well as on meridian as well as sprinkled alongside crushed oreos), as well as Cheesy Vegetarian Chili Mac.  There's also the fact that Shaun got a breadstuff maker for his birthday, as well as then we're learning how to role that.  So far, he's made a 2 lb loaf of white breadstuff as well as a 1.5 lb loaf of cinnamon raisin bread.  It's tempting to only swallow fresh breadstuff for every repast of the day.  

* Come upwards alongside a organisation for keeping upwards alongside housework.  This has NEVER been a potent adapt of mine.  I'm a listing person, as well as then I shout back I require to come upwards up alongside a listing that tells me what to do when.  Then, hopefully I'll genuinely proceed upwards alongside it.  I shout back I require a listing that tells me what to do every unmarried day, what to do in ane lawsuit a week, what to do in ane lawsuit a month, etc.


I'm certain there's a zillion things to a greater extent than I desire to do this summer.  Okay, I'm positive in that location is.  I'm the daughter that has a 6 page long to-do listing give-and-take document on her computer.  But, I incertitude you lot desire to withdraw heed nearly my plans to finally getting around to framing my undergraduate diploma as well as my plans to finally position together marriage photograph albums (and an album I bought to commemorate our one-year dating anniversary...)

I'm thinking that I volition revisit my progress on these goals at the foremost of July as well as August to reverberate on how I'm doing.

What's on your summertime list?
