Back to School

School has started! We have 2 days behind us and 171 days ahead of us!

Our class has 21 students - 13 boys and 8 girls. The bathroom will prove to be very interesting this year. As a matter of fact, it already has! Yesterday the water in the boys bathroom was shooting straight out - so all 13 boys came out of the bathroom with their shirts soaked. Time for a lesson about not playing in the water - and if something isn't working right don't keep messing with it!!

I am excited about this year. The class seems to be a great group of kiddos!! Three weeks of JumpStart during June really did help!!! Our second day together was very productive - I do believe we completed almost everything I had planned!!!

Monday I plan to hit 'power teaching' hard. It is time to start the reward part of the program.
I guess I better refresh myself on 'power teaching' with a trip to the website! I'm off to do that right now!! Then I will enjoy the rest of my weekend!!
