We reviewed expectations and made "Math New Year's Resolutions."
Overall, the lesson went great. I even had time to introduce dilations. yay!
But what sticks out in my mind when I reflect on the day is the funny things kids say. Maybe it was the 2+ weeks away from quirky middle schoolers, but they were cracking me up! Here are two examples:
------------------------------------------------------------
Kid- Wow, this [pregnancy] is going by fast!
Me- I'm glad this has been so easy for you. ;)
------------------------------------------------------------
(it's afternoon homeroom and they should be working on homework)
Me- work!
Kid- Twerk?
Me- No, work! (suppressing a smile)
