Jan. 19

Nothing new with brisket tonight.  I had some leftover from last night... still VERY good stuff!  So, instead of food pictures today, I'm going to share some pictures of some pretty great stuff from my second graders (7 & 8 year olds).


This first one was from a CSCOPE assessment.  Student were asked to use "let's" correctly in a sentence.  This one missed the mark a little.

The next examples are from a packet we did on Martin Luther King Jr.  I asked them to write and tell me their dreams for when they grow up.

This was the front of the packet.

She wants to be an astronaut and have a rock from Saturn.

He wants to be a surgeon and  fight for his country so his family will be proud of him.

His dream is to be a married, drive a train, have a house and a red and gray car.

She wants to travel by plane, sea, or land and recycle trash.

She wants to get married, have 8 kids, and work with animals.... either as a zoo keeper or a vet!

And maybe my favorite written message of all time...

I love you.  (You) are the best teacher in the world.  (This from one of my dyslexic students.


You gotta love kids!
