5th Grade teacher!

Hello boys and girls! I got wonderful news today. I am now a FIFTH grade teacher at Spencer! Which is good and bad. It is good because I love having a classroom of my own. It's bad because the only fifth grade class I wanted to teach was you guys! I really miss you and wish that all of you could come to Spencer. BUT I know that you are doing GREAT things where you are! I also have a new blog page that I will be updating very soon!

How is school going?

Hello young men and women!

It has been so nice to hear from a few of you. I have heard that all of you are doing very well. I am SO happy! I knew that you would. Now all of you know why I was so hard on you all of last year, it was to make you better and to prepare you for life. I have talked to DJ and Shemonte and I was so glad to hear from them. Remember that you ALL can contact me at anytime! Please post and let me know how you are ding this year.
As for me, as most of you know I am at Spencer school. This school is actually not very far from Howe! I am the writing specialist there, which is alright. I would love to have my own classroom with my own students though. The kids here are okay, most of them are well behaved, some are a little nuts. I teach 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8th grade classes, which is pretty hard. Not all of the students here were like you guys. You guys were doing 5th and 6th grade things when you were in 4th grade!
I am happy here and I hope all of you are happy as well. I MISS ALL OF YOU terribly, I hope I get to see some of you in the future!

Love,
Mr. McWade

Back To School

Hello my WONDERFUL, TALENTED, FUNNY, HARD-WORKING, INTELLIGENT former students. I hope all of you have had a wonderful summer. It has been great to hear from you (Alexis Holmes, Daniel, Ashanti, Kateria and Autumn). I hope that all of you are getting ready for the school year to start. I know that you ready to show your new teachers the wells of knowledge you have. I also hope that you continue to add to those wells so you can become better than you teachers! Once again I will be teaching a Spencer, where I will actually be a writing and reading specialist. I really hope that the students at this school are half as smart as you guys are/were! I really hope that you do well this year and continue strive to be better than everyone around you.
One of your classmates has already seen my new room! Brianna was helping her aunt, who is a teacher at Spencer. Can you guys take a guess what room number I have????? Let that be the bonus question for this week. What is my new room number? Add 64 plus 40, then multiple that sum by 2. Next, divide the product by 2, finally subtract 0. What is your answer? ........you should know this, look at the webpage;) I miss you all and remember if you ever have questions about your schoolwork please feel free to ask!

Happy Summer Vacation

Hello my former wonderful students. I hope you are having a great summer vacation. I hope that ALL of you are being safe and that all of you are reading at least one book! I miss all of you and I hope to hear from you soon. I have already heard from Autumn! If you see this post, remind the rest of your classmates to get on and tel me what they are up to. I would love to hear from all of you.
Ms. Natalie and I will be in Europe from July to August 11th. So if I do not get back to you, I'm sorry and I will when I return home. Also I have taken a teaching job at SPENCER School for next year. Once again I miss you ALL and hope you have a great summer!
