Getting to know even more about our students and finding things out about them that I never knew even though I had them as students last year. I've also enjoyed seeing some of the students maturity levels increase over the summer.

I was extremely excited on day two when I did a writing prompt and several students remembered what I had taught them last year about formatting a 5 paragraph essay.

The kiddos appear to have goals and they speak about them as if they have processed how to achieve them. The students seem  excited and they approach us because they know our staff is approachable. As I look at these first couple of days are kids appear to feel safe and comfortable at  Bon-Air which should result in having a productive school year.

Getting to know the incoming sixth grades and their immaturity but their curiosity about Middle School. The seventh graders who are now feeling confident with middle school and knowing they have it mastered. Its funny seeing them try and teach the sixth graders the dos and don'ts . The eight graders are all ready to be the leaders of the school. Seeing their maturity is the best for me because they have finally reached the top.  Most importantly, seeing how eager they are to be in our wonderful teachers presence is the biggest JOY for me.

Even though I haven't had these seventh graders long, they are doing what I am asking of them!  I am enjoying them already!

I love our 6th grade class sizes!  Since the classes are smaller, I know most names already, and I'm learning a lot about them.  They seem eager to participate and work.

The students came prepared to work. I gave a long pre assessment Friday and the students definitely tried. And if they finished early, they were quiet.

Instilling the idea of GRIT by convincing them they are not learning if they are not making mistakes! Which makes mistakes not only okay but desirable!!
