Day 21 - Thank Goodness It's Friday

For a four day week, this past one seemed to last forever, but at the same time I couldn't believe it was already Friday. After Thursday, the relief of the impending weekend was all I needed to motivate me through Friday. We wanted to give the students a break from group work and make sure they had time to finish their work before their quiz on Monday, so Carrie planned a brief lecture, followed by individual work, with plenty of time given for students to finish their journal work. This was a good idea for some students, but some students had a little too much time on their hands.

Friday was generally good, 5th period was a little more rowdy than 4th period, but it is a bigger class later in the day. After school we gave some make-up quizzes and may have had a minor breakthrough with one of students whose personal life has severely gotten in the way of her academic life.

Now it's Sunday and I get to look forward to a 5 day week during which I will be observed during 1st period. PRAY FOR ME.
