It was a nice change this year to really see kids learn and just teach the material no more than 2 times while in the past, I taught the same thing over and over again in different ways. Ha!

I am going to be getting my masters in special ed i hope to do what you did move around but i can see how its hard to teach the same thing over and over again in different ways.... I am looking into doing 2nd grade bc the kids will already be able to read and i remember falling in love with books in the 2nd grade. I have always had a great vision of taking a chapter book and adapting a lesson plan in all subjects around that book science and math and social studies even in PE maybe and health...that way children can see language ( english that is the second language ) in many different aspects...
