Algebra Block

"Ms. Jiang, I miss your class! I don't like my new class. Everyone in there's just like...ME! It's not right, I'M the only ME." - One of my Algebra 1 kids that got moved to our Algebra Block class

Algebra Block is our support class for students who are at risk of failing Algebra 1. Basically, we put them in two periods of Algebra. They do all their work in class, and have extra time to go over each concept. Generally, the kids in these classes also have behavioral issues. The kid with the quote above was a character. Nice kid, but could NOT stop talking. I thought his comment to me was both amusing and sad.
