hey - it's NOVEMBER!

Yesterday began the 2nd Quarter! I am looking forward to the new quarter - starting over with grades, feeling a lot more organized... now that I know my kids, I feel a lot more prepared to teach them this quarter.
I'm going to try my best to update more frequently, but for now I'll just post some quotable quotes/conversations:

Lisa: "Ms. Jessica, my tooth is molesting me!" (the verb "molestar" translates quite hilariously because it means all kinds of things including punch, shake, hurt, tickle, bother, annoy, and of course molest. Every day it is a struggle not to laugh when a kid says "Andres is molesting me!")

Jaeden: "Ms. Jessica, guess what? There are actually fifty-ONE states!"
Me: "Really? What is the one we're missing?"
Jaeden: "Miami! I went there."
Me: "No, that's in Florida..."

Wualys: "New Hampster, New Jersey..."

Kimberley: "Look! I wrote all the numbers up to 301!"
Me: "Wow! Great job - that is so high! Do you know what the absolute highest number is?"
Kimberley: "Ummmm... a dollar?
