7:30 a.m. - Today needs to be productive because yesterday was spent being a grandparent.  Being a grandparent is always good, but not much else gets accomplished.  I think Cole and Carmen will be visiting, so I'm going to try to get exercise and schoolwork done before they arrive.  I'd like to watch the Bears at 3:30, and I'd like to watch Iowa and Illinois play some basketball, but I don't know how much of those three broadcasts will be seen.

Things to do for school

• plan for return on January 6 - 
• Khan SAT prep - sentence, phrases, clauses
• Indigenous American Unit/African Slave Unit
• determine weakness areas in Khan Grammar Tests (after Jan. 13 when tests cannot be completed)
• score and enter E.B. White grades - 1, 3, 4, 2, 7done
• score and enter FRW grades from Wednesday

• Daily
• edit today's agenda on the Stream with recorded class session
• create the next day's agenda and schedule post to stream - for Jan. 11
• add assignments/activities/resources to Google Classroom as needed - for Jan. 11
• score assignments and record into Lumen as needed
• respond to student/parent emails and update grades
• TUES - schedule FRW assignment for Wed.

Things I Could Do or Need to Do In the Future

• Jan. 13 - Take HHR back to Slayden's 
• Get 2020 officiating report for taxes
• Listen to Google Tribe podcast
• Listen to IF podcasts
• order a IGHSAU basketball officiating shirt
• fix the green door.
• Check gmail messages.
• Have shin guards fixed somewhere?

Things that I NOW think about with the coronavirus. (1/10)

The numbers continue steady or decreasing trends in the state and here locally.  This is much different than the reports for national statistics.  I find myself wondering why.  Here in the Midwest are we just adhering to CDC guidelines better?
