Doug and I have had the opportunity for the past school year of listening to students read. These students are first graders. We work with one student at a time. It is fun to see them each week. As we enter their classroom they are so happy to see us. They read to us and we ask them questions to see how well they have retained what they read. Some weeks we see a lot of progress and then other weeks it feels like they are going backwards. That has to be frustrating for them. I think that they deal with a lot of outside distractions. We play word games with them and their half hour goes by so quickly.
We have enjoyed being back in the classroom.
