I've gotten questions as to why I'm teaching February's ULS unit in March. So, I figured I would go ahead and let my blog readers know why this is!
I teach in a very large county that has adopted a decent portion of it's school to follow a year round calendar. Basically, I teach for 9 weeks and am off for 3 weeks. I have been in this type of calendar for 4 years now, and LOVE it! It was tough at first, but now I couldn't imagine going back to a traditional calendar.
So, sometimes I'm ahead a month, behind a month, or skipped a month. I'm trying really hard to teach the same unit that you are currently in so you can actually utilize the resources that I'm posting about :)
This Friday is the last day of my 9 weeks, and I'll be on vacation starting on Monday, April 4th. I am working on setting up posts to fill my blog while I'm on vacation. My posts will be scaled down to 2-3 postings, but when I return on Monday, April 25th, I will be back to posting 5 days a week. I'm starting with my April unit, so I'll be a little behind you.
If you are coming up on your Spring Break, I hope you have a very nice relaxing vacation and enjoy every minute of it. If you already had your vacation, I hope you are coming back nice and relaxed!
I just came across your blog. I am S/P teacher and have been doing it for five years. I feel like News2you is a great idea. I have a few students that I have been working on letter id for several years (5 years) now and we are not getting anywhere. I am now starting to match and this is going great. Thank you for your blog. I would love to hear more about your class.
