Achievement Test Week-YAHOO

I always love achievement testing week. Here are my selfish reasons why: the kids have to be silent during testing (I love quiet times:-), I'm not being bombarded w/ a million questions by my students, and teaching is much more laid back this week. This is probably my favorite week of the school year:-) We had a really good day even though they got kind of loud this afternoon. The kids did their centers and I even came up w/ a game for them to play at one center- they ended up really liking this timed game. It was nice for me to see their enjoyment, so I think this will be added as an option for centers. I like learning from them.

The weekend seemed to fly by. It was pretty noneventful. I got some school work done and went to church and rested. It was nice to get some rest. From here on out, life/school is going to be very busy. Josh is enjoying his Wii and bought a fishing game that he is hooked to. Oh, I did get a new cell phone over the weekend (a chocolate). I think I like it o.k., but need to get used to it. Our computer is still on the brink of blowing up, and we are trying to search for a good deal. I'm leaning towards Gateway, but we'll see. I still can't load pictures up on this blog, and that is a little frustrating to me. Well, that's about it for now.
