Day 33 & 34

So much for making comments everyday. I was in class only a half day on Thursday and we only had students until 1:25 on Friday. I had a play on Friday night and Scout meetings on Saturday so I stayed late on Thursday to make up for not staying late on Friday and coming in over the weekend--did you keep up with that.

I had a doctor's appointment on Thursday. I had a new sub and she did a good job. Many of my students know her because she is a mom of some of the students in the school. She got along with the students and only had a few issues. I finally completed my work at 7:30 on Thursday. I had all of Friday ready and a good start on Monday. On Friday I finished getting Monday ready and a got good start on the rest of the week.

Both Thursday and Friday were very unremarkable days. We did have a fire drill on Friday. It was published in advanced and everyone was ready for it. Not a big deal. I finally got one of my students refereed to the LCM committee and we will discuss her behavior issues on Monday. I also was able to send an email on another student who has a speech issue. I am not sure what else I have to do. One final issue I tried to solve but did not was to get one of my lower level readers put in our reading club. It is a special reading program for slower readers. I have to check with her resource teacher first before I can do anything else.

All but four of my students passed the practice math test. The other four I gave them a new test and they did a little better. Only two students passed the Spelling Pre-test. At least those two do not have to take spelling next week.

I will try to do a better job on Monday. Some nights when I get home I do not get the chance to use the computer. I have a wife and a daughter in college and they use it first on school nights. Not much more for now.
