Yesterday my friend brought her class out to the hallway and showed them this work. I overheard her tell them that she is having them write so that next year they can be writers like this also. Made my heart sing.
**********************************
I am feeling so much love and commitment to this class I am amazing myself. These first graders are blossoming right now. Readers, writers, mathematicians.
Tonight I am thinking...When I get these kids off to second grade I think I should be done.
How can I go back? Get a group of fresh first graders, bond with them, teach them, and get them ready for second grade. This class has come so far. Can that happen with a different class?
That is what I am thinking tonight.
They look wonderful, thanks for sharing.

I was just thinking the same about my class - I don't want to let them go. :( Now last year's class was a different story!
ReplyDeleteAlyce,
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree with you more!
I love my class this year!
Can't imagine having to let them go soon!
Hugs!
