Sometimes we do things out of the ordinary to help kids remember how to do things. Today's out of the ordinary was talking like Jimmy Fallon in his "Ew!" skit.
We worked through factoring talking like that. So strange but it made it fun and a but goofy.
Had some tests today and some did well and others did not. Hard to try to keep everyone on the same page, especially when one of those or some of those kids have attitude days. Had a kid not want to take the test and then asked what we did yesterday. "We'll, we took the same test you will take right now". She just rolled her eyes. Good thing I'm not her mother.
This weekend I preset a journalling topic with a friend/fellow teacher. Starting to get nervous about my part but I think once I get things rolling, my friend will take over at least I hope she does since she is so much better at journalling than I. To prepare I'm creating the front page of a booklet we will make and one of the foldables. Been working on the foldable in my spare time and hope to post it when it's done. After that I MUST finish my book study. I should be done by now. I'm lame to not have it done and I'm 2 tests from being done. If I was my student, I'd be onry. Ok. More grading and hopefully to bed soon.
I mentioned I went to bed at 10:30 pm and my students surprised me by listing even earlier bedtimes. I had figured they were all night owls. Haha!
Lates.
