Tuesday, September 25, 2007

Today was an excellent day. All my classes were well behaved, with very few exceptions, and we got a lot of work done. We talked about reading letters today, which will be one of our biggest grades this year. Students will have to write 4-6 paragraphs about a book they have read or are reading, and I write back to them. I love the personal communication about reading and books that this creates.
