Basically, use this thread to post the good and bad highlights of your week. Ideally, posting on Sunday after the week has completely ended is best, but you may choose another day of the weekend to update. Got something to brag about? Got something you just want to rant about? This is the place for it.
Rules:
- Only post 1 time with a good/bad update for the week that has just passed. Do not post more than once with an update for the same week!
- Reply to as many member updates as you want
- Have fun

I'll start with mine.
Good:
I got my first paycheck and it was larger than I'd expected, which was a very good thing. I also got my 2 RB items, which many of you know was the RB's Treasury book and the Paint a Rainbow record.
One of my highlights of teaching this week is my reading intervention students (3rd grade) and the poetry unit we started. The groups were reorganized amongst teachers and I have the fluency group. I chose poetry and found them completely enthralled with my first lesson, which was a jump-rope couplet using the "I Made a Mistake" poem. One of my favorite student created ones was this: "I went to the store to buy some shorts/I made a mistake and bought some warts"
Bad:
The only bad things this week happened at school. From student misbehavior for two days, to being exhausted easily, to the 7 hour headache I got that started at school, it just wasn't my week overall. Needless to say, I was glad when Friday rolled around!
Your turn!
