I think I give up trying to do daily goals. If I were a hermit, I think I could do it. LOL BUT I'm determined today to eliminate MOST interruptions that I KNOW will come my way, so here I go. LOLStart

Thanks Trinity!@Vicki- I wish I could read as much as you :) I'm always lesson planning or something and don't get to read as much as I would like.
Krista, me too! That's why I'm always behind on my buddy reads. Lol I was thinking I could read ALL DAY since I have a day off but I just remembered that I have progress reports due tomorrow and a large pile of papers to grade. Ugh...can't wait to retire! Lol I spent a few hours yesterday on yearbook pages. But I just wanted to READ! READ! READ! Lol What do you teach? I teach English and yearbook.

It depends on the quarter.
We have built in DEAR time this year so I have been reading more, but this weekend I wasn't very focused so I need to stay after and finish my lessons for the week. Oops. I had my eval last week so I was very focused on doing well for that.
This is such as good idea! I don't know why I've never done this before (:Today, I want to:
get to at least 60% -(currently at 48%)
-read as much as I can :D

I've found it very helpful since I started doing this last month. I don't always stick to it, but it gives me some direction!

Has anyone else noticed that their Reading Challenge books list isn't updating? mine says 32 read but is only showing about 25 in the list. It's missing the last 8 or so books on my "read" shelf. I've checked they have the right finished dates, and it's adding to the number total, just not displaying properly.
I haven't been reading as much the past few days from moving and a super fussy baby...but I plan to hopefully read 2 parts of
(about 110 pages)
