Starting of Week 2

Week 1 was a whirlwind. Great group of fifth graders...both home rooms. Started a great book...4 Crazy Kids in 5E & 1 Crazy Year. It is a great start for Writer's Workshop.

Workday

It has been amazing to watch as our staff moves to prepare for next week's start of the school year. With three days of Professional Development finished we are left to our classrooms today. Of course mine is still a work in progress, but I am starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel. I look forward to sharing the finished product Monday!

Day One

Well, day one is in the books. Many interesting points made, especially from our superintendent. Looking forward to a great year with many positive thoughts.

A must read: The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon.

Day One is Here

Molly Kim and the IC process...getting the upper level involved in a process the elementary has been working hard to implement.

Here I go...the IC Buddy!

School Start UP

So it starts. It is the Sunday before the first day back for teachers and I am feeling ready for this next chapter. This year marks my 12th year teaching and I can't believe the journey I have taken. This blog was built to track my classroom's activities and share with other educators the happenings of one teacher.
