  1. “There is definitely energy there coming from the colleague, and it is not all bright and wonderful. Which takes us down. I avoid it now. ”
    Sometimes easier said than done! My school is getting complaints from freshman parents that the 9th graders are too stressed. Our admin is talking about no tests after Christmas through exams – we go back Jan 7 and exams are a week and a half after that. I do not count myself among the purveyors of stress since I rarely give any homework. I am very flexible about scheduling tests especially for my upper levels – “Oh, Friday is not a good day, too many other tests?” No problem we can do French test on Monday. Whatever. So my “traditional” colleagues, the purveyors of stress (which is passed off as rigor!) have their noses out of joint and I just try to keep the CI train rolling. I can be flexible. Here’s the rub – getting back to the negative energy- the same person who is being told to back off is the same one who cautioned me a few weeks ago about developing the reputation of French being easy as a result of no homework and easy tests and quizzes. You see, she had a mini mutiny a few weeks ago – her kids out loud said they should have taken French! I could care less, but she was offended and I got a warning to watch what I was doing. Funny, now the admin wants us to take a less stressful approach. Can’t win, I guess. Sorry for the ramble/rant!

  2. It’s not officially announced yet but Carol and Diana are working on doing a conference with Krashen and Jason Fritze similar to Breckenridge. I don’t even know if it will be called an iFLT conference or something arranged by TPRS Publishing or what. San Diego July 9th next summer. Same format with students from the San Diego area. If Carol is putting it together it is going to be good. I had decided to stop going to conferences but this one looks really good so I am reconsidering.
