Can you tell that I have been busy? This school year is going very well and I am very lucky to have two great classes and great people to work with!
We have already read "Fourth Grade Rats" and "The Cricket in Times Square". Currently, we are reading "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing", another one of my favorite fourth grade books.
We just finished our first writing and reading benchmarks and the scores are great! I have some kids that love to act and put on quite a show with the commercials they produced.
We are using a new writing program this year and I am really enjoying it. It has been a challenge since I didn't go to the actual training but I am seeing a great response through the student's writing. I have some kiddos that love to write stories this year so I am very excited to see their writing develop.
