A little ray of sunshine

Posted at 6:41 pm under Uncategorized




On A days I have the luxury of having my English 11 Honors class.  Today, each group presented their short story to the class.  I was immediately impressed with how much each group was able to grasp and discuss with each of their own stories.  What was really amazing was when the entire class started to discuss and ask questions right along with the group presenting.  I was so proud of them and my heart was just glowing.  This year has been a really rough start, but for an entire block, these students were engaged and really discussing literature.

    Being a vetaran of both block/non-block scehdule, I can say for a fact that less is accomplished in a year on a block schedule.

    I found it easier on me (the block) as I like a lot of different activities per class and plans for a sub are also wayyyy easier.

    Mrs. Propp! Hi! I hope your Honors students know how lucky they are to have the block schedule time to discuss works thoroughly. I do wish we had the time available for our AP English class. How fun would that have been?
