Block 2 is starting to get a little rowdy, and comparatively block 3 is starting to calm down a bit. I think since the weather is getting nicer it is going to be harder and harder to rein them in.
No one seemed to like the vocabulary review sheet. They said, and I agree, that it was too intense; there are 67 matching questions, front and back of one piece of paper. It is just too much; it overloads the system. Also, during block 3 a student expressed an interest in a sheet that had examples of each thing, that way it would be easier to remember. I was going to do it for just one student, but then I figured that more than one student could probably benefit (differentiation!!). During lunch I typed up a little sheet that had more concrete examples for a lot of the vocabulary words, so hopefully that will help some of the students out. I only feel bad that my block 2 class doesn’t get to benefit as well.
