Today, I return to the regular classroom, so I thought it would be fun to look at some stats.
26 years I have been a teacher
6 years since I’ve been a classroom teacher
22 number of students in my class
12 boys in my class
10 girls in my class
4 kids on an IEP
13 ESL students
8 speak English at home
10 speak Spanish at home
3 speak Nepalese at home
1 speaks Pashto at home
12 met or exceeded the 3rd grade Math/Reading benchmarks
12 did not meet the 3rd grade Math/Reading benchmarks
I know most of the kids in my class, some better than others. All were at our school last year, a school where 85% receive free/reduced lunch. We also have 9 new teachers and 12 new staff, if I have counted correctly.
I don’t know exactly what this year will bring but I am ready to embark on this new adventure. Wish me luck!
