LIVE EACH DAY TO IT'S FULLEST

I always like to end the day with asking a student to tell me 3 things they learned today. It makes them reflect upon the day and really put into perspective what was most important to them.  It might not have been what the math skill I taught for the day was or what the story they read in reading was about it might be something else that they found very interesting.  I've had answers such as they couldn't believe how many pages were in the dictionary they were using, or perhaps the meaning of a word wasn't what they had expected it to mean, or that you could really find such and such a word in our dictionary.  Maybe that Jeffrey was the fastest runner in our class, that the wife of a President is called the First Lady, and that all months don't have the same number of days.  I love to hear their answers each day they truly are such curious inquisitive minds we are so blessed to work with.
