In the years, I&#8217;ve gone to teaching on real IBM PCs in a networked lab, teaching QBasic and Pascal, and then to Visual Basic and C++.  Even last year, I&#8217;d been doing Java for a couple of years, and sitll was doing Visual Basic.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday was really good.  We had a computer lab set up for the math students work do tutorials on.  Four of our math teachers showed up included the math department chair.  We worked in one lab for a while, then fed the kids, then moved them to a different lab.  The different lab was my new lab, and I found the gradebooks.  Now I know my student&#8217;s names and have some grades for them.<\/p>\n<p>Since we had so many people, it freed me up to spend a couple of hours, even paid, to get situated.  <\/p>\n<p>I may even be able to move my Algebra I class into the building, we&#8217;ll have to see.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, I&#8217;m working on getting my class website back up and working on lessons for the week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not that worried about the new courses I start teaching tomorrow.
