I'm working on my New Year's Goals today. I'm trying out a whole big goal planning system from one of the many leadership and productivity gurus wandering around the publishing houses. I'll let you know how it goes as I get closer to the 1st.
Speaking of goals, here's a joke for you:
During the last session of our teaching workshop, participants were asked to state their personal goals for the immediate future. One teacher vowed to update photo albums, another to lose weight. The goal that got the most response, however, was given by a kindergarten teacher. "I resolve to exercise until I can complete a 20-minute workout in less than an hour," she said.
This came from the site Teach-nology, which has a lot of lesson planning resources, one of which is a huge collection of jokes teachers can use in their classrooms.
Personally, I would never use this. I am [almost] the worst joke teller in the Universe. Only my mother is worse than me, so I come by my handicap honestly. I usually "get" jokes, although often it's a few minutes after everyone else and we've moved on to a new topic.
