So the school year is off to a pretty good start. I am working with grades 1 & 3 this year instead of 4-6. The principal shook a lot of things up. She created an entire remedial class for grade 4 boys that were held back. This motivated her to put a lot of emphasis on early intervention strategies. I applaud her for trying new things to see what combination works. I tease her and call her Joe Clark :) As you can imagine, working with the little kiddos is quite different. I am enjoying it so far. They are full of smiles, hugs and giggles.
...part of my conversation with Tia as we walked home from school:
Me: Tia, why did you pour out your drink???
Tia: It nah have no sugar
Me: Tiaaaa you can’t only drink juice, water is good for you !
Tia: Teacha, me drink wata me cough, wata make me sick

Much love to the little people
