Getting over good, bad and got

I HATE when I'm reading a paper and the same words appear over and over!  "It was really good.  I think the book was good.  I think the character made a good decision."  This is a great way to help kids get over using the same words!

Create a tombstone for the most used words in the class, putting them to rest forever.  But be sure that you include the "survived by" part so that they have ideas of what else to use.

I am such a nice sub!

Apparently, I'm too nice of a sub. I really need to work on my Viola Swamp skills! Actually, none of that is true. I am a very strict sub, that's the only way to survive, but I'm also nice and fair. Apparently I'm also pretty an have green eyes (my eyes are blue), because I got these two pictures and notes yesterday. This is also the first time I'm posting from my phone, I hope it works!

I feel pretty special!
