Good evening y'all, It has been a long day, but it has gone by fast. Sort of ironic. I'm sitting at home trying to get some rest from this cold that's clinging to me like a crawfish...?? I know I've been at work too long when I start sounding out words in my head that I see--like the word, Th-i-n-k-ing. Or I start saying the words that way to adults when they ask me a question. This 2016-17 school year I am a LITERACY TUTOR in AmeriCorps. It sounds kind of fancy when you put it that way. I spend my days working one-on-one with about 16 different students on various reading interventions. We work on short reading passages or blending together small words. This also includes a lot of paperwork, data entry, prep work, bribing and coaxing via small toys, candy, and cracker items. It should involve a lot more praise than scolding, more high-fives than head-shaking, and you get the picture. The work is often rewarding, but also where I want to bang my head agai
