I was at a conference on the Common Core. It pretty much sucked. I heard every freaking research book rehashed in the last two days. At one point, I think I was tempted to use the table leg to knock myself out. Many of the presenters' PowerPoints had so many typos in them I wanted to scream; they talked about some learning strategies as if they were brand-new. For example, they acted like no one had any idea what a KWL chart was. Seriously?!? I think if my district had known, they would not have paid money for that. And if I had to hear a variation of Hattie, Daggett, or Marzano again....well you know what I wanted to do with the table leg.
The one awesome thing was my hotel room. It was HUGE. It had a kitchenette and the shower was one of those two-sided showers where the water comes out of both walls. YES!

I was so ill that as soon as the sessions let out that afternoon, I crashed in my room. I was ready for some Nyquil and a good night's sleep!
