Happy Holidays! I'm excited to link up with Mrs. D. for:
Professional: I really loved taking the Responsive Classroom class, and I've definitely implemented Morning Meeting. There is so MUCH MORE to Responsive Classroom than Morning Meeting so I want to try to expand this approach.
Planning: I also love Literacy Centers, and the kids thoroughly love this time, too. I want to find more entertaining books for the Listening Center. In addition, I need to shorten each center to twenty minutes so I can fit in more rotations each day.
Organizing: Now that I'm making progress with my Literacy Centers, I need to keep my materials organized so I'll be able to find and reuse them. Right now I'm just piling everything in my classroom closet.
Students: Last week we did a Follow the Directions "test." I made a video of this activity, but I need to figure out how to email it first. Then I'll post it on my blog. (Now I've just invented another goal for myself.)
Motto: I really like to think that everyone is doing their best - I know I'm always trying to do a little better every day. That's what I tell my students - just do a little better every day, and that little bit just keeps adding up.
