I'm back

I have been too depressed about school to post lately. That and there has been a lot happening. But I feel as though a veil has been lifted and I have some valuable perspective again.

I can look past the events that are taking place and see my students for the wonderful, delightful people they are again. And in my classroom, that makes all the difference.

This week I have set about taking control back again - making it my classroom and not theirs. It's not that anything became wildly out of control, but the shift in my classroom definately went towards the kids for a little while. And now I'm back. I had a lot of fun so far this week.
