Well, as the school year draws to a close, I am sad to say that I
really let the blog fall by the wayside and I am so disappointed in myself
about that! BUT, I know from much
experience that when you fail at something, you must try, try again! So, with that said, my goal is to re-start
this blog next over the summer and keep it going throughout next school
year. I hope to consistently update
every week and really use it as a communication tool with not only parents, but
also with students and other teachers! I
am going to have my students this year create a blog about our class as a
cumulative project and hope that it inspires me to really stick with the
blogging for next school year!!
Sadly, I still have no followers so who knows if anyone is even
reading this!! But if anyone is, please
do not give up on me yet!! I will get
this blog going, I know it!!
For any parents who are indeed getting notifications and reading
this, thank you for being patient with me!
Just to update you on our current school comings and goings—CRCT is almost
over!! Two more days and I am so proud
of the kiddos for the work they have done thus far!! I am really looking forward to the last few
weeks of school! Last week, I polled the
kids asking them what did they learn about that they would like to know more
about and what other things in the world do they want to learn about, maybe
things that we wouldn't usually study in school! They took it pretty seriously and got really
excited about potential project ideas. I
have hammered out a math project where they will act as architects and design
their “Dream Something”, meaning dream house, dream school, dream town,
etc. For science/social studies, it is a
work in progress as of yet.
Anyways, thanks again for sticking with me through this first year
of teaching – we are going to make these last few weeks
great!!!
