Reflections

I wanted to let you know that students did a reflection about how they are feeling about the election today in class. 

 I asked the students to answer the following question:  The Presidential Election of 2016 was completed on Tuesday, and a winner was announced.  Please describe how you are feeling about the election and why.  

 Many of your students have questions and are having trouble expressing their ideas and feelings respectfully to their classmates at appropriate times.  My hope is that they are able to express in writing what they are feeling better than when they speak to each other.  The students have been talking about it all day and I feel like writing about it will help us maintain our focus on our academic needs as well as address our feelings and concerns.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
