My old chair was falling apart and was not working properly when you would sit on it but, my new chair is a life changer! \r\n\r\nBow that we have new books more of my students are asking if they can borrow a book and that makes me so happy because before they would not even touch a chapter book! \r\n\r\nI do teach Middle Math and being able to create huge anchor charts for everyone to see helps so many of my students especially with being in a high ELL school.
