12/2

Teaching today was great. All of my classes went super. I’m really starting to get to know each of the classes and understanding what works best in each class. Games seem to be the best in every class and stickers work amazingly for the young one. In some of my classes I started with days of the week and months of the year and in my other classes I finished up the lesson from last week, which was numbers. For some reason the numbers 12-15 are the hardest for them to say and remember in all of the grades. But today is the first Thursday where I wasn’t worn-out by the end of the day. Not to mention the snow really helped as well. It’s been snowing for 2 days now, on and off. Nothing is sticking but it’s still really nice to see it coming down. Really makes it feel like Christmas.

  3. Hi Jen,

    I'm your grandmothers friends daughter. Your dad and Aunt Anne and uncles grew up with my oldest brother. I babysat you and your brother a few times when you were teeny tiny. Anyway,I've been following your blog.. living vicariously through you. So post something new !! lol.. But I was thinking your kids there may really dig silly bands. The younger kids here are crazy over them and collect every possible shape and theme (Yankees, Harry Potter, animals) they can find, then trade them. Keep up the good work.
