The Tell Tale Heart

This week was kind of fun in reading class. At least for me. Hopefully for the kids too. We read the Tell Tale Heart. A few kids had read it before, but most of them were suitably impressed by reading about the dismembering of the old man. They were surprised to be reading about stuff like that in school, for sure.

I'm still struggling with my 8th period class. I have two kids who are good at getting the others riled up in this class. One of them was out two days this week and the class was great those two days. Working on reaching them is going to be difficult, but I will of course keep at it.
