I don't think I posted this correctly the first time. I added it to another conversation by accident. Hope this is correct this time.

Okay, did anyone have a light bulb go on at about 6:00am on Saturday morning? I did and now my brain cannot stop! I am dreaming heads together structures relentlessly. UGH! I think I have the first week and a half of school sorted out now. Anyone with any thoughts on this: Since I do not know any of my students really this year, I plan to put them in teams to do stations while I test for placements. Then get started on the reading and math programs a couple of weeks into the year. Logical or no?Thanks for any input.
