Teacher Paul is BACK!

Hello Parents!

I am happy to be teaching again, especially for the advanced class.  This week, we are chosing text books together.  There are two different publishers that we are considering, McGrawHill and Scott Foresman.  We've read 3 stories and we've have decided to go with Scott Foresman's Reading.  This semester, we've also added new curriculum to further help with their verbal and writing.  Lots of vocabulary this week and I will be requiring them to study them this weekend at home.  The story from the take home reader is quite difficult and the questions are not easy and it require critical thinking.

I am trying to work the kids back into shape.

Anne needs to speak up and read out loud.  She also slacked off in class on Thursday and that's why she had to stayed til 730.

Valerie participates more but she had to stay til 730 because she was playing with Anne.

Teddy takes the class seriously, but he is not paying attention sometimes and writing too slow.  He also had to stay after.

Jack has a better attitude in class, he pays attention but he doesn't speak clearly.

Dave is good and fast with his work BUT he needs more confident and speak up more.

Pon Pon is great, he enjoys the class but needs to speak up more.

Betty needs to read louder and participate.  She works diligently.

Howard is good so far.  He hasn't got into any trouble and he is doing well in class.  However, some of the questions I ask in class, he should think about it more.
