I learned...we made it to day 179 without the construction causing any issues with school - but then we got a power outage and fire alarm in the span of 7 minutes!
Something great that happened...playing kickball with the kids - so much fun!
Something challenging that happened...my standoff with Bhavya in the lap over him throwing his book at me.
A question I have is...how much academic progress will be lost by the kiddos over the summer?
I wonder...if I will be super sad or pretty happy for vacation come 12 on Monday...

- I am a 23 year old college student from small town NJ transplanted to New York. I love life and seek out moments that make each day unique and special. I am a human "bumblebee" flying through life defying some learning odds! I am now in Boston to get a masters degree in Special Education, and cannot wait to get started.
This is a wonderful idea, to keep a journal of teaching. My mother was a teacher and I know how hard this job really is. Teacher are gems, some of the most special people in my eyes!

If children aren't given home work, they'll have no reason to study and their progress will decline, from an academic perspective!
ReplyDeleteHowever, if they're given summer assignments, they can continue their progress and learning further - even before advancing to the next standard!
