As of today, I am officially done with my pre-summer-term planning and prep for the two classes I will teach in June and July for that community college down the road from me. I always like this part of the semester: plans always look so shiny before they collide with reality and get a little disheveled. Of course, plans for college courses never get nearly as derailed as plans for high school courses, so I don't think I will have too much to worry about. If the preliminary class lists I saw today were any indication, I will only have eight students in my reading class, and only two students in my writing class. That could, of course, change during drop and add, but I don't think it will get anywhere near a full 25 students per class. Of course, I've been wrong before.
