When I was offered a job teaching Language Arts summer school to First through Fourth Graders I wasn't entirely sure what to expect.
When I found out they would all be in the same room, I had to give it a try.
Teaching three levels in one classroom makes me feel a bit like Miss Stacy, the teacher in Anne of Green Gables. Only my kids won't have slates. They will want to watch You Tube clips.
They will also need to learn how to communicate in a world where information is constantly coming at them and events and ideas can change lives in an instant. They will have to learn this faster than my generation ever did (and I'm not that old!).
They will also need to learn how to spell...
Where to begin?
