Look out, everyone!  My cousin mailed this to me.
Just wanted you to know what happened if someone
yells, "Bull---!" during one of your presentations.

INSERVICE ACTIVITIES FOR ALL MY TEACHER FRIENDS:


Do you keep falling asleep in school in-service
meetings? Here's a way to change all of that.

1. Before (or during) your next meeting, prepare
yourself by drawing a square. (I find that 5" x 5" is
a good size.)

2. Divide the card into columns - five across and five
down. That will give you 25 one-inch blocks.

3. Write one of the following words/phrases in each
block:
* modifications
* TAKS
* core classes
* bottom line
* revisit
* to tell you the truth (or "the truth is")
* 24/7
* out of the loop
* benchmark
* pro-active
* win-win
* think outside the box
* result-driven
* empower (or empowerment)
* knowledge based
* at the end of the day
* mind-set
* student focus(ed)
* game plan

4. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one
of those words/phrases.

5. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically,
or diagonally, stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"
