quietest day in the classroom

Tuesday, November 18 is one of my most favorite days in the classroom.  It could be related to the fact that six students were out--not good because they had the flu--but it was quiet, kids got lots of work done and our principal, Mr. Schurman dropped in for a walk through.  He pulled me aside afterwards to tell me that my class was WONDERFUL.  It was nice to hear, but I did tell him of the circumstances and he smiled.  I am not going to get my hopes up for a repeat performance, but it was still quite nice!
