I learned...that teaching kills trees. We teach children to respect our world, but then we go and make 500 copies in a single afternoon, all in the name of teaching and helping them learn.

Something great that happened was...I was given my own reading group, exciting and scary all at the same time.

Something challenging that happened was...trying to keep Bhavya from melting down over the smallest things and at the same time not lose my cool.

A question I have is...does rationalizing work with rigid children? Are they so locked into their rigidity or is there some way to help them work around the issue at hand?

I wonder about...my ability to truly lead my reading group and help them become stronger readers.
