The most important report(s) you write all year require accurate use of copy and paste more than any other single skill.

I just spent half an hour developing a comment bank for math and French. The comments are cookie-cutter-like; I choose the expectation from the list, modify it to reflect what I actually taught, and add words to indicate which level the child is working at (like "accurately" or "imprecisely"). The math ones aren't too bad, because I teach to the expectations. But my French program is so far beyond what the curriculum expects, it's just unreal trying to bring it down to that level. In my last school, I ignored the curriculum expectations entirely while doing French comments, but my principal won't let me do that here, so the comments are doomed to inaccuracy and bureaucratic mumbling.

Have I mentioned before that I hate report cards?

I know I'm too engrossed in my job when I don't even get that I'm being made fun of. . . :)

Making fun of you or anyone else for that matter - NEVER.

Enjoyment of corny feed lines and ancient gags....guilty, regrettably.

'pologies.

That's okay. You're forgiven. :) I know the difference between teasing and taunting. I got that you were doing the former. Eventually.

I take my job too seriously sometimes.
