I am definitely behind in posting. Other things have obviously gotten in the way! Now it's Thanksgiving and a cold has slowed me down so that I am finally found my way back to this blog! School seems a bit distant when it's a long weekend. I think it's now been about four weeks with my new class. It's funny how every year is a learning process. So much of these first few weeks with a new class is assessment, figuring out where we need to go. I am also having to figure out again how to do the tricky business of covering two different curriculum with two different grade levels. I have also gone from the end of grade seven to the beginning of grade six and seven...
Sometimes people ask me how I get the great work out of my students that I do and quite honestly, it often is a bit of a mystery to me. The last few weeks I think I could tell you quite a few ways I haven't done things right! The best part of teaching is you do get the opportunity to try to get it right at least some of the time. So stay tuned...
