This is quite a new thing for me to blog; however, I feel that this is a great place for my students and their parents to come a get the scoop on what's happening in class! This week was a super short week for students because the teachers were able to attend conference in-service meetings at FLEC! I am really excited about what I learned, but more about that later. We also attended the FETC convention yesterday which was ALL about technology in the classroom! It was a ton of fun and Mrs. Geach and I found quite a few things that we would LOVE to use at our school.
One of the great things we talked about at teacher in-service was Reading Plus. I am really excited about what it has done and will continue to do for the students. One of my students began on level one in October and is now at grade level! The key to improvement is TIME spent on Reading Plus! I've told the students, "Practice makes perfect!" Please see the video below to see why one teacher, Ron Clark is excited about Reading Plus. After watching the video please take a moment and
