That bench is less than four feet wide. Sometimes there are four students there. |
Turns out that teaching 7
th and 8
th grade requires a different set of skills than teaching high school -- skills that I have not mastered, actually. However, at this point, we have come to a comfortable place. We are doing really well together and we are right on target for the curriculum. I have a couple students that need occasional behavioral reminders from the administration. The other day, I took a student to the principal, and when I left him to return to class, he was on his knees in front of the principal speaking quickly; it sounded like begging and pleading even though it was not in English.
Students with special needs are not given any accommodations. I can clearly see that some of the students have learning disabilities and are not capable of the work put before them. They are lost. (Lost student + lots of time sitting in class = behavior problem.)

Hi, probably our entry may be off topic but anyways, I have been surfing around your blog and it looks very professional. It’s obvious you know your topic and you appear fervent about it. I’m developing a fresh blog plus I’m struggling to make it look good, as well as offer the best quality content. I have learned much at your web site and also I anticipate alot more articles and will be coming back soon. Thanks you.
