This week was a short week due to no school on Monday. On Tuesday of this week I worked with my students on their research packets. The packets were due on Wednesday so I was working with student’s individually and who were not finished. On Wednesday I helped the students with a poem about their famous African American. The poem format was the same for each student in which there were 6 lines to fill out. On Thursday my teacher was not there. The students were in special when I first arrived and when they returned from special we as a class went to a jazz choir concert. I enjoy going to extra activities during the school day.

A couple of weeks ago I found a really interesting article on MSNBC in which it was covering voting in schools. Because the election year is upon us it is a teaching topic that can and is really relevant to the students. Students can understand the importance of voting, and it would be fun to hold an election in the school.
