#AdultESOL finished. Have one weekend off before classes start up again at the very end of May.
#k12 school year is almost finished, but I am doing an intensive, 2-week #ReadingInstruction / #dyslexia PD at the start of summer break.
My final #CyberSecurity course starts tomorrow --- #EthicalHacking! Very excited, but also very exhausted. Love it, but looking forward to being done with CYSC courses. Unfortunately, I won't be teaching it at #HighSchool next year.
#HighSchool #graduation today. Went well, good to see families and some older siblings who graduated years ago.
#AdultESOL (#AdultESL) class had #writing test today. Need to grade that tonight.
#CyberSecurity class has 3 assignments due by tonight, but professor said don't worry --- party he is also really busy and won't have time to grade, and partly because we were down for a bit due to the #Canvas #ransomware.
Last week of high school next week. Then summer #ProfessionalDevelopment time.
Don't have the pics yet, but we tried two new recipes tonight in #YoshikosKitchen.
Super busy week because #k12 school year is winding down, #AdultESOL / #AdultESL is at the writing test part of the term, and this is the final week of the current #CyberSecurity course.
Oh, and because so many #USA Americans lack #CriticalThinking skills and / or don't have time to rest, much less watch (increasingly unhelpful) news, daily life is even more stressful than the usual background stress levels.
90% done with a #AdultESOL (#ESL) #HiLo (high interest, low reading level) book for intermediate adult #EnglishLearners in the U.S.A.
The story follows the Rivera Garcia family as they start a #FoodTruck business as the first step toward bigger goals. Parents Miguel and Ana deal with fixing the truck and getting permits, insurance, etc. on top of work and the children's school. Mateo is the youngest, in third grade. Sofia is in the middle. Camila is a sophomore.
Off from #AdultESOL this weekend --- between terms --- but my class is full! Can't wait to start working with this new group of wonderful students.
Proctored SAT testing yesterday. Always not fun, but at least the computer version guides the students with timing and I don't have to watch the clock as closely.
Working on some cool #cryptography pages for my #NeoCities site. Also need to update my main personal pages with my #FluxDocApps --- I have 13 ready to go.
Haven't posted much recently because fairly busy with end of #AdultESOL term (papers to grade!), the new / next #CyberSecurity class (network security, so deals with actual #tech, not bureaucracy).
Also, we switched #ISPs when we had a new option that was cheaper and about 200x faster. I think we are finally close to speeds we had in #Japan 20 years ago.
ISP #Router interface not great; they want you to use a phone app. Both have fewer features and worse gui than the 10yo one we replaced.
Sunday #AdultESOL class already cancelled. We'll have class Sat morning, but not sure how many students will be there.
Lots of debate about if we'll have 2 or 3 days of #K12 #education next M-F (some votes for only 1 day, also).
Yoshiko took off #Japanese #food (#sushi) work Sunday --- they'll probably end up closing anyhow, and we live farther from her work than most of her coworkers. Driving = no fun, Sunday.
Happy #Snowmageddon, #Ohio
finished final assignment for #CyberSecurity class. Next up (starting in January) is "CYSC-630 Information Risk Management". I'm worried because it is about 6 weeks but 4 graduate level credit hours. Will I sleep?
Good news, though: #AdultESOL class ended last weekend. #K-12 classes ended last Thursday (aka the day before yesterday). As of 19:50 today, I am officially completely and totally on break for the next two weeks.
Second #k12 snow day this month, third if you count yesterday for my weekend #AdultESOL job. Only three days of classes with students this week, then #WinterBreak.
We have a long list of things to get done during the break; we'll get a head start on them today.
Need to prep for classes (#ESOL and #CyberSecurity); update some writings; and make some videos for #teacher #EducationalResources.
Off this weekend and next; we're between #AdultESOL terms. Class for next term is full, so looking forward to that starting up.
Yoshiko took today off, so we're going to have a fun day of doing stuff around the house, taking it easy, maybe running a few errands, walking the dogs, and #cooking.
I have a backlog of #YoshikosKitchen pics to post here. Will have more by tonight and will try to post some today or tomorrow.
(also doing: encfs => gocryptfs and #CyberSecurity homework)
