This week has been very challenging with the switch back into Orange but the class seems to be adapting well (afternoons are rocky!). I am proud of their ability to adapt so well to these changes as we all know they are not the easiest to make. Important information: This week I will be doing oral language evaluations on students for the last two units we finished just before the Winter break (this is nothing to stress about we have been reviewing the questions continuously).
