1. My freshmen were really good in the IMC today. I always get nervous taking a class down to the library to work, because it's an unfortunate opportunity to make a bad impression on other teachers with my students' behavior. However, my freshmen class is really quiet walking the halls and also relatively quiet in the IMC. Last week, the IMC lady even complimented my class for being so much quieter than other classes.

2. Several students came to me today to pick up missing work. It's always refreshing to see students taking control oft their own educations. It also feels good not to have to chase a student down for missing work!

3. One of my 4th hour students has made some major improvements over the last week. After talking to his mom early last week, he was upset with me, but by the end of the week his behavior had markedly improved. I didn't expect it at all! He got several pieces of work done today, and even asked for more missing work to complete! It felt so good to not be angry about this student after 4th hour today!
