1 Week

So, I intended to post on Friday or Monday about my week of doing structures all on my own. Sin curriculum or anyone's borrowed lesson plans. Today's Thursday so I'm a bit behind. Monday was a holiday so you can bet I didn't do anything productive. Tuesday we had a professional development day and I got to learn about reading strategies for THE Carol Gaab. I'll save that for another post. Wednesday I had jury duty (yay). So, here we are.

Last week was actually very successful. Everything went smoothly. Monday ended up being a review day. Tuesday I did circling and PQA. Wednesday and Thursday are block days at my school so we used our words to come up with a story. I had a student write the story in English while we were telling it (a great a idea from a co-worker of mine) so that I could go back and type up each classes unique story in Spanish. On Friday we read the story and did some different activities to help students understand the reading. The students really seemed to learn a lot and I felt really confident as a TPRS teacher. Yay!
