2 Weeks Down

And I am still in love with my wonderful class. They aren't perfect - they learned on Friday that when I say "Clean off your desk before you go out for lunch", I mean it - but on the whole we are getting along smashingly. We are covering our curriculum smoothly and quickly. They are actively engaged in their learning PLUS we often have time left over for unrelated discussions and explorations. The difference between this and the tooth-pulling I had to do last year is still enough to have me floating on air every day. I wake up EAGER, not only to get to school (I always enjoy the environment of the school), but for the kids to join me.
