Ah. The snow that was supposed to fall Monday night came down like it was it's JOB. Here's the thing: When I left physical therapy at 7 p.m, the sky was dark and there were just a few stray snowflakes. No big deal, right? WRONG! By 9 p.m., there was about three inches on the ground. What? Where did THAT come from? Needless to say, I went to bed that night a little frustrated because I knew there would be another delay. Which would set my plans back a day. The plans I carefully prepared over the weekend (and had already printed out) for my two-day absence later in the week. The plans that had to be replanned, readjusted, and reprinted so they would be ready Thursday morning. Grr.
I know what you're thinking. "Just cut and paste the work from your template." Ah, if it were only that easy. See, now I had to move my Friday comprehension quiz into next week (not on a MONDAY, though), and had to push my language arts block forward. Which means that I had to come up with a "filler" day for Monday so the students could have time to get ready for their comprehension quizzes (because you know they probably won't remember over the weekend...). I also needed to adjust Social Studies because we had to take some of that time on Tuesday to finish language arts activities.
I have the plans fixed now, and am hoping no other weather-related interruption occurs while I'm gone. There isn't any in the forecast, but you know what they say about the best-laid plans...
