PD 5: 2013-2014 Grade 9 Algebra

Ms. Martinez and I had a good time with this class. There were some bright stars in the room that really moved the class along. Aside from the bright stars were a mix of hard workers who made great progress, and some people whom ultimately functioned as vacuums of motivation. My own life was almost consumed on many occasion.

We liked the class for the most part. The hard workers and motivated bunch really were cool people with great personality. I know it didn't take long for us to get to know each other very well. I encourage all of you to reach out to me via email to say hi; I would love to see how you are doing.
​
This was a controversial 3-term common core Algebra class that got converted to a 4-term common core Algebra class. It was the inaugural year of CC. I wonder how that turned out with these guys...
