I like to save electricity.  Because of this - also known as my cheapness and stupidity - I walked right into my sewing table.  Two smashed toes.  However, if I can walk on them, I can dance and that is what I will be doing tonight.  Hopefully the DJ will make me sweat.

So I am going to try to get into this STEAM workshop over the summer.  I have been brainstorming ideas, researching, mulling things over.  I have three working ideas so far.  I will discuss them with some people to get feedback.

Who would I want to work with in the related departments?  After last year's try at a team taught lesson, I am gun shy.  He/she might think it was a success.  I thought it was a disaster.  I need to work with someone with the same work ethic as me.  I cannot work with someone who makes it all look great at first glance but is shaky once you scratch the surface.  I need to work with someone who will teach to all the students, not just the elite.  My classes are very mixed.  The lesson needs to be something that will appeal to and draw in all types of learners.  Last year's lesson did not do that.  It was a show.  One teacher was on stage performing.  One was on the side trying to keep the show interesting for the whole audience.  It did not work.  At all.  I cannot work with a person who slaps it all together at the last minute.  I refuse to work on a lesson for two weeks, receive no feedback, only to have some last minute slapdash lesson sent to me at nine-something the night before.
