check!

another parent teacher conference day (and evening) under the belt!  and i survived!  parents were mostly pretty happy and of course it's not the parents that you need to talk to that show up!  it's the B students who want an A or the A students who want an A+.  but it was fine.  i only got 2 angry parents who say that i am the reason that their son or daughter did not get honour roll or high honour roll because their lowest marks are in my class.  i said that i don't give marks, but students earn them.  i was able to back myself in both cases and show just how exactly their son or daughter could have improved their marks and earned a higher grade in my class. 

next up, a full day of assessment training tomorrow.  yes!  on the weekend!  sheesh!  this is going to significantly affect my shopping/tv watching schedule!
