The first two days of school are done! Yay! The school year has officially begun. These students have a great benefit of seeming to believe that they are adolescents yet. This gives them a great advantage over those that come into my classroom certain that they are already fully grown or whose heads are so full of certainty they don't have any room in their heads to learn anything else.
Keeping kids on track is really about keeping up with the details and being consistent with our policies and policing. I am going to work very hard this year to keep up with the drudgery of nipping behavior in the bud before I have to deal with the headache of trying to get students back on the path to learning.
