I know you missed me! You can go ahead and admit it!
Blogging had to go on the back burner for a bit as life got busy! I am in the middle of doing 3 assessments (Words Their Way for spelling, Fountas and Pinnell Benchmarking, and a Writing Assessment) and got overwhelmed with all of them going on.
I've started looking for websites that would be great to use during Daily 5....for kids to read by themselves, with a partner, word work, and to listen to reading. Writing I can handle. So, if you have any great websites that you use with your students in 2nd grade to there-abouts, please leave them in the content section.
I am working on taking pictures of my classroom. I had everything fixed just write and then got 8 new students and had to work on changing again. In fact, my room is going to be undergoing another change this weekend as I make room for the huge cart that the music teacher must push around. She is having a hard time getting her cart in and out with my floor plan as it is.
I hope to start sharing all of the fun things I have been doing and planning soon....there is just NOT ENOUGH TIME!!!!
Not to mention that I have a couple of fiery kids this year, so I had to totally invent a new behavior contract to use and it seems to be working.
Thanks for coming back by....I know it has been a bit slow lately!
