Crazy kids of mine

My endless toil to connect with my M2 class (the 8th grade class) continues. Today was a joy as I spend to morning with my M1 class (the 7th graders) and the afternoon with the M3 class (the 9th graders). Both were willing to have fun, listen, laugh and learn. My class yesterday with the M2 class was exhausting. I am preparing their test and maybe after the test we can get a fresh start. But I still don't know what I'm teaching once the test is over! My endless battle...at least there is the knowledge that I will have my M1 and M3 classes. They re-charge my batteries.
