Surprise! Surprise!

I just had to post this super news!  I have heard some positive thoughts from my regular Algebra I students this week.  

I heard some say, "I actually like math now."  "Is this all there is to it?  Well, I can do that."  "I have only one question today compared to my eight or nine."  "Oh, wow, I am getting this!"  "I will go home and complete my assignment tonight!"

Then, there was this other student of mine who said, "But I did the odd ones!" when I assigned the even ones and it is written on a white board near the front of the classroom.  I graded them, and this student had all the odd ones correct, so I gave him credit...this time.  The important thing here is he understood what he was doing.  

Also, I had two students say, "I completely forgot we had an assignment."  (Yeah right.  Usually, we have an assignment in math class especially since we have had so many days off for ice and birthdays and so forth.)

See you tomorrow at school!
