The agenda item in our team meeting was student concerns. After at least 15 minutes of heavy conversation about strategies that were and (mostly) were not working to support some of our tougher students, we switched gears to more typical sixth grade problems.
I mentioned that a new student came to me three times a day all week last week. "Do I have your class now?" she asked every time.
"She was coming from elementary school," one of the other teachers pointed out. "She just thought you were her everything."
"Yeah," I winked, "I get that a lot!"
