I instructed my first grade students to cut and assemble a "tricky booklet." A student who usually struggles with directions and implementation, understood what to do and was available to help other students. The sense of pride on her face when I asked her to assist others, made my heart sing.gradeoneteacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10191661424589182407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068319742935364044.post-27976441741012844872010-10-19T17:11:51.561-07:002010-10-19T17:11:51.561-07:00I can only imagine what an experience this was for...I can only imagine what an experience this was for your entire class.
