As we are just getting back into the routine of coming to school after a long break, you'd think we'd just right back into routines in school.  Not so in ELA!  We had quite the eventful week with getting some reading assessments in and a few visits from Mrs. Paulson.  We hadn't seen her in forever, so she graciously came and lead some activities with the 6th graders this week.  They were a lot of fun and we learned some new things about some of our classmates.  Ask your student about it!  Add to that the 2 hr late start (which took up all our ELA time for Friday), and we had already gone through the entire week!  My how the time flies!  I'm looking forward to next week and getting some routine back into our ELA, as well as the new units we're starting up in reading and writing (see next week's blog post for all the juicy details).  

All in all though, it was a great week...as is any week I get to spend with the 6th grade.  They really are great students and I'm so glad to be their teacher.
