I just wanted to share this...
There's this little girl in my sixth grade class who's simply adorable and very attentive in class. Last class, she finished up her writing early, so I went over and taught her how to sign her name. Today, after class, I caught her before she left and asked her if she remembered how to write her signature. She misunderstood, showed me the copies of her signature from the day before, I covered the previous writing and asked her to write it again, and she did, without hesitating. This coming from an age group that doesn't even know what "cursive" means and, if I asked the same question, would probably respond with a blank stare.
I would love to spend extra time with her, but don't know how. It's not only her, there are a few others that I know could benefit from some one-on-one interaction, or even small group lessons. The ones that would quickly pick up some simple songs or improv games. That's the fun part of the job :)
