It started out as a cold, damp, and drizzly morning. Now that it's late afternoon, the sun has come out. The temps are cooler than normal for the area and they are calling for snow showers/flurries later on this week. At least we had a taste of spring this last weekend.
My students have been awesome this week. They continue to amaze me with their abilities to push past their disabilities to gain skills that many felt they would never achieve. One of my students is moving up to Middle school in the fall. We went to a meeting yesterday. One of the people at the meeting remembered him from Early Childhood. I reminded her that we had been told that he would never have functional speech. She was amazed when I told her that not only does he talk, but he rarely is quiet. This boy can tell stories that are so believable, that one would think his family life is very exciting. Of course his favorite tv show is "Cops". Today I had a boy who can take about 8 steps independently get up and walk all over the classroom, then down to the library and back. WOW!
are all things I should be doing instead of sitting on this couch with my laptop. I should have never bought this thing!
