Yeah yeah yeah...

I know it's been a long while... things have been really ridiculous lately.  I have a new co-teacher who is with me all the time.  It's nice to have another body in the room, but I feel more stress because I feel like we need to produce a lot more than when it was just me... so for the sake of this blog, let's just move on to how I've been feeling in the past weekend or so...

I've really been planning hard.  I'm being much more intentional and in depth than in previous days at Alger.  I am actually liking how my unit is looking.  My only major concern is that the kids won't understand the material or there is too much stuffed in to a short period of time.  However, I think it looks more fun than anything I've planned.  There are white boards, bingo, crafty-type activities, thinking maps and projects... I'm hoping the kids love it!!!
