It is official... I am obsessed. I think the standards will make our students much better learners! Or, pardon me "College and Career Ready" :) I am just frustrated that our county thinks that all we need to do is assign the standards to our old learning schedule... No! I want to create my own learning schedule, but I am not sure I am up for the task.
One of the major ideas is that teachers are facilitators. I laughed at this last year and said next year, I will just be in the back of the classroom sipping my coffee while the kids teach. Well, it is amazing how well this class works together. We do a great deal of partner and group work and I love hearing the learning going on. The other day, I overheard one group say, "Don't bother Mrs. Nice, she is teaching a group. We can figure it out." I just smiled. It is a great thing.
I am glad today is Friday though! Are you?!?!? Hoping to spend Q.T. with my husband and not obsessing on creating a learning schedule!
