Along with the Downs are the Ups!

Today's session was awesome! My student was at his best, today; we accomplished basically every activity that I had planned. Along with identifying words from the word wall, he succcessfully identified and spelled most of the words from his word bank. As a reward, he received a token for each one. We followed through with more activities such as Paired Reading, the 3-Sentence Summary based on the story, creating a new word bank and finally, having Nobert write his reflection in his writing journal. Yes, there truly is a God...and thank you Nobert for making my day!
Never look down on anybody unless you're helping them up.

  3. Just when you think things are looking bad, here comes the good to make it all worth it! I'm so proud of your boy and of you. He's going to remember most that you cared enough about him to help him.

  4. Geri,
    whether it's an up day or a down day with Norbert, it'll always be interesting! Even if you had a challenging day with him, isn't worth it in the end when he gives you his big smile? Keep up the great work Geri, we're half way there!
