A Dusting

Today the kids had to bring in their political cartoons. And honestly I was wicked impressed. A lot of them had really interesting and unique messages, and some other ones were drawn wicked well. Overall, very very impressed by the work they did.

For the rest of the class periods (I taught the same lesson in two sections today) I had them all make up questions for a review-type trivia game thing. It went really well, they all got into it. At times they were a bit rowdy, but my cooperating teacher said he was really impressed and said that it was clear that the class likes me and recognizes me as their teacher, and not just some substitute.

Beyond that school was fine. the snow was a let-down since we didn't get any. They said we were supposed to get like 4-6, ha nope. We MAYBE got a dusting, if that.

Long weekend coming up, I love schools that recognize national holidays (unlike my college), and then february vacation the week after. February is looking good.

  1. You should make a class blog displaying their cartoons. I'd be interested in seeing them :)

  2. Also, perhaps people don't comment on your blog because it takes too long. For some reason it doesn't ask me for my word verification until after I've already clicked "post comment." Too many steps! You should check your settings and see if it can ask for word verification and the comment all at once.
