Day 27

Mixed blessing-
In class today I noticed there was a calm that spread through the room..... I looked around and realized that two students were out (suspensions) and a third was home sick. It really is amazing how the absence of two or three high needs students (read super annoying and obnoxious!) can totally change your day. I was able to focus on helping several students throw on the wheel and a few were super happy to have created a cylinder- their first! What an accomplishment. I was so excited to help those few students whom I never get to talk to but then again... the others come back tomorrow. Today was a good day...

Hmmm, I bet I can guess which students you weren't exactly sad to see absent :)

Actually THAT student has been permanently removed from my classroom... I can fill you in later. I like to call it "Artistic Differences." Hee hee
