I have about an hour of life left in me tonight, and I don't know what I'm teaching tomorrow.  We just finished a novel in class last week, and I told them we'd be digging in deeper to it this week.  ACK!  I HAVE NOTHING!  Since I have never taught this particular novel before I don't even have anything to pull out of my files. 
Well, actually I do.  I do have a ton of different ideas and approaches.  We need to focus on theme and conflict.
Discussion?  Reflection questions?  Small group?  Hands-on?  Using technology?  A series of small assignments?  A big project?  Leave it open?  Set exact guidelines?  
What would be the most engaging, yet the highest impact?  
Don't even ask why I didn't have this all planned out before we started the book.  
I've been flying by the seat of my pants.
I'm so dead.  My first class starts at 7:00 am.  
Fffffffffffffffffuuuuuu
