This was supposed to be done already, but now it's Tuesday and I'm trying to remember what I was going to write about for Friday.
Ok, so we did a lot of stuff about The Princess and the Pea today. We read 3 books (one traditional, two silly), did a sequencing/writing activity, and made a chart comparing the 3 books. They did really well with the comparing, and we had a pretty impressive chart when we were done. We also did some math, which was kind of tough for some of them. However, the instructional coach came around right about that time and she helped some of them as well.
Surprising but not moment of the day was when it was time to fill out one kid's behavior card at the end of the day. He either gets "wonderful", "ok" or "not good" ratings for morning and afternoon. Well, all day he'd been pretty much a pill (not following directions, not doing work, interrupting, bugging others, whining, arguing with me, hiding when time to line up from recess, etc.) So when I went to talk to him about his card before they went home he asked me if he'd gotten an "ok" - like he was really sure that's what he would get. I had to explain to him why he did not get an "ok" and he was not too happy with me. Thankfully, then he went home. :)

O.K. - I'm waiting.
Love you!!! MOM
Isn't that the way it is 95% of the time with those behavior problem kids? They just can't believe they haven't earned the good rating when you have had to say their name 50 times during the day in a negative way. Some things never change.
Love you!!! MOM
