8/31: hearing
...a whippoorwill this evening, something I don't remember having heard as late in the year as this before. Chris noticed it first and called me out onto the porch so I could listen too.
8/30: figuring out
...(or at least hopefully figuring out) the due dates for individual assignments for the Picturebooks class--quite a puzzle!
8/29: making collages
...in class with the Picturebooks students as we tried out Molly Bang's principles for how images work.
8/26: starting
...my evaluation dossier. It's something I've been putting off, but now I have to do it. It's due in a little over 2 weeks, and I'm glad it's now underway.
8/25: hearing
...the Vulgate students' thoughtful responses to some questions I gave them about their reading practices, uses of memory, and reactions to the physicality of books.
8/24: unexpected
...agreement in my department about a possible change in policy. I thought it would be contentious (and hence stressful), but wow it wasn't. Things may get thorny as we propose the change beyond the department, but at least this first step was smooth.
