Now that I am a couple weeks into the year, I finally find the time to comment on the blog as I sit down to mark my first assignments. While teachers are constantly challenging students to avoid procrastinating, I wouldn't be honest if I didn't admit that often when I sit down to work, I find myself reaching to the least important obstacles first before getting down to the real business at hand.
The class has come along well, and I finally have a seating plan that has the right vibe for all the classes. Students in all classes have began to wrestle with producing reading responses to short stories, and I am keenly interested to see what comes of their first attempts!
While I have been lucky to get to know you all so much better these last couple of weeks, I feel that reading your writing is going to open a whole other perspective on who you are and I am excited for this opportunity.
I will be updating the site with images from assignments as soon as I get permission from students, as well as with pictures of the classroom, early next week.
Have a great weekend everyone!
