Yep. Where I teach it is a legal document of evidence, plus it's used for our teacher evaluations.

I have to have everything planned out. I also have to submit my plans each day.

Went through these biases during a meeting. I knew a few & learned about the rest. It's something I'm going to share with my department as we start our new semester in a couple of weeks w/new students.

I'm doing something similar as well. Tuesday & Wednesday, my level 2 & 4 are completing the STAMP exam & my level 1s will begin the speaking & writing parts of their final exam.

Sorry. I don't know anyone in Iowa.

There is an activity called "1 dice, 1 pencil" that my students enjoy. I think it is from Comprehensible Classroom. Great for grammar worksheets. I've also done the grammar grid where they roll for subject & verb, the upper levels get an extra die for tense.
