This year was very fun in many ways. First of all it was really relaxed and chill. To be honest, I don't think I had a favorite part of the year. The whole year was full of laughs and it was very entertaining. I guess what I really liked about this year was that you were really nice and let us turn in our stuff even if it was weeks late and I appreciate that.
@rgatlin2 Nice post.
@rgatlin2 I feel the same way man.
The best part of reading class was when we did the yoga class. And my least favorite was the binder test. I think it could be improved by not having notebook test and replacing it with something else like a different test. The yoga was fun. It also help me concentrate.
My favorite part of reading class this year was when we got the chance to work together after reading ADNPWD and just any activity we had when we coud work together. My least favorite part of reading class was when we had to memorize Titania's speech. Honestly i love reading class so I don't think it needs to be improved.
rgatlin2
Good job..
lmiller2
I like your post!
This is my first and last year at fort Clarke and I'm so sad it's ending. I don't have a favorite part of reading class because I loved learning but having fun at the same time. My least favorite part of reading is that I have my class after 5th period and you're not in such a good mood. I don't think you should change anything just try to have a smile each period.
@Lmiller2
good job! you just need to organize your binder ;)
@jphan2
yea that was hard, but I found it kind of fun.
My favorite part this year in reading class in when we did the whole Shakespeare unit. I had so much fun acting it out and doing the music. My least part was when we had to do the group talk for A Day No Pigs Would Die. I wasn't too fond of that. And I really don't think are reading class needed improvement.
LMiler2, Good Job!(:
jphan2, Nice Job (:

My favorite part of this reading class was the first half of the year. for instance when we read ADNPWD and I loved the poem and acting in Shakespeare. Just the atmosphere of the class is amazing. No matter what goes wrong we always find a way to laugh at the issue I could name a few funny ones but I wont. Anyway, my least favorite part of the year had to be the remembering the speech.
@nluna6 nice post
@Lmiller2 the yoga was during FCAT time right?
My favorite has been when you let us do the cause and effect play. I thought that it was really funny and i enjoyed it a lot. My least favorite is nothing honestly. i guessing its because Ive only been here for 1 month.
good job rgatlin2 and nice lmiller2
The best part of the year was that everyone always have fun no matter what.My least favorite part was when I had to recite Titania's speech of Shakesphere. I can't imagine the class needs anymore better.I'm just disappointed that we are ending so soon when I just got here. But I hope everyone have a great summer!!
rgatlin2...
I hope you have a awesome summer!!!
Lmiller2...
Yoga class was awesome!!!
My most favorite thing about my year in this reading class is all the acting we did, it really made me laugh a lot. My least favorite was when we had to do all those notebook test, it really put me to sleep. One thing I would change about your class is the atmosphere in the room. I would change the way it looks and feels.
Lmiller2
I had a fun time with yoga also
Jphan2
nice post, keep it up.
The most favorite thing about this year in my reading class was when we did everything that was funny. There was too many laughs everyday. The least favorite thing we did in this class was probably doinng all the tests. That was really boring. Overall, this class was my favorite in middle school.
@jwalker5,
Good job
@pblangor5,
Good job
My favorite moment of this year wasn was the projects we did together.We had a lot of work just kidding. The thing I would look out for is mini projects.There not hard but you might forget.
My favorite part of reading class this year is when we acted out scenes in MidSommer Nights Dream by Shakespear. This was my favorite because we got to dress up in costumes and just have fun overall. My least favorite part of reading class was being in class with Scotty. Kellar, Trent, etc. I didn't like that because we lost a lot of priveledges because of them goofing off. Overall this was a great year in Fat City.
@nbrown wow nick
@jwalker4 im suprised your favorite part wasnt sleeping in class!
My favorite part of Reading was the friends made. I liked hanging out and learning with new friends. Next year I will study and stay with good, polite, and smart friends. I also 2nd period.
I did not like the note book test.
My favorite part of reading class this year was that we can chill.My least favorite part this year was the binder test.That could be improved by having my notebook on the day of the test.The class laughed a lot.Mrs.A Thomas showed us our grade no matter what.
Lmiller2-I feel the same way.
jphan2-Nice post!
My favorite part of the year was when we had substitutes, for no particular reason.My least favorite part was getting an asd. My mom wasn't too happy when I told her what I did. Besides that I liked the days we were allowed to go to the library for the entire class.

Good blog
dmcknight2
Good job
zbauer5 good job
jwalker5 nice blog
My favorite part of Reading Class this year was when we got to work in groups doing the Shakespeare's plays. Also I loved random days when the class was always laughing at nothing in particular. And the cause and effect plays were so funny. My least favorite part was when we had to take the Fair Testing. They were so boring! To improve this class for next year you should have more group activities.
@jwalker
Great job
@MLayne2
I loved Shakespeare too!
The favorite part of my reading class is how my favorite teacher Ms. A Thomas likes to chill and talk with us unlike my LA teacher she is so boring. My Least Favorite part was when I got a lunch detention for my phone out. That is about it, but you are one of my favorite teachers that I had in the world.
LMiller2 good job
wdalluge2
Good blog
Well I'm in your 5th period, so ,everyday is my favorite day!Mostly because of the odd mix of people in there at one time. My WORST part of the year is when you and Mr.Wang deside to stop the "Prank Wars". I think you guys should start those back up again. PLEASE, SO FUTURE CLASSES CAN ENJOY THE THINGS WE "ONCE" DID.
@gmontgomery2
i agree, my least favor part was lunch detention too.
@Lmiller2
I like the yoga thing , it helped a little for FCAT.
My favorite part of reading this year has been the amount of group work we do. I love working with my peers and interacting with them. specifically the group activities where we perform. Then my least favorite would be when we goofed off to much and made a super nice teacher mad. Other than that there is nothing else but i can conclude that this was my favorite class of my middle school career.
This 1/2 was actually really fun! You are a great teacher and there wasn't more than 1 flaw! The thing I loved that there were some days that we chill and fun days, like the yoga class. You always knew how to control the class and make them chill out. The one thing I didn't really like is there was a lot of memorizing things in which, if you had all advanced classes, it was pretty hard. But, I guess that was preparing us for high school.
@lmiller2 Agreed! I loved the yoga!
@jphan2 I also didn't like memorized that.
Well I don't know what to say. My favorite part was when we had all the sub and get to hang with some of my best friends. My least favorite thing I mean things well I got 2 referals from you and like 10 asds and 14 lunch detentions. I think I should stop their with thing I hated. Overall I kind of enjoyed the year
cwalker5 you are a god to me in that class
zbauer5 great post and no more drawings in that class
my worst part in your class is having to take the test and having those subs when your sick. My favorite part is seing you and having to laugh ever 5 minutes!
lmiller2
nice bro
tcole6
cool
nluna6...
great blog!
dsmith5...
i completley agree!
cwalke5 awsome
lmiller2 lol
This year has defiantly been my favorite year at Fort Clarke. My reading class is well…… special ,to say the least, and we haven’t gotten to do many of the things that I and many of my classmates were looking forward to. Other than that this has been a great class and we have had a lot of laughs! Overall I loved being in this class and even though we can’t be mature at times we have made a lot of memories together with the best teacher at Fort Clarke. Thank you Mrs. A Thomas!!!
This has been a great year in reading for me. I was lucky enough to stay in this class mrs a thomas is a great teacher, she makes class interactive. My best part this year was really connecting and getting envoled. My worst part this year was having to many friends in this class, which distracted me on many occasions. mrs athomas is a great teacher she really try with us kids one thing ill say to inprove is the level of controll over the students. This has been an amazing year thanks for everything and sorry for anything.
The best part of my reading class this year was probably have so many nice friends and a wonderful teacher Mrs.A.Thomas. I can inprove by reading more books and getting a better vocabulary. Everyone has something that they can inprove on. I am looking forward to next year but i am going to miss Mrs.A.Thomas and all of her comments jokes and great teaching skills.
akinney5 those are also some great things that happended this year.
That is an amazing post gparent5.
My favorite part of reading class is when we practice the yoga techniques.
and when we have the binder tests .that helps me realize that your always suppose to be prepared for any kind of test that comes. all of the note book tests,yoga,and everything else we learned this year helped me realize that i can use those techniques in high school.All of this also helps me concentrate on what i'm doing.
jphan2
i agree
rgatlin2
that's true i agree
Every year i always have fun in reading class. It was usually always funny and relaxing. The best part of the class to me is when we read ADNPWD. My least favorite part of the year is when we had to do all those poems. A thing that can help the class is more extra credit oppurtunitys, we did not get many this year.
Rgatling2
Nice post... great way to comment yourself.
Jphan2
I liked ADMPWD as well
My favorite part is when we would act out stuff, like a midnight summers dream. I also like reading short stories, but I don’t really like answering questions about it. Also I like the vocab quiz that was on the clickers. I like when we did the mini projects for our books that we had to read. This is what I like, but I don’t really have to say anything about what I don’t like.
Jphan2
nice job.
akinney5
good advise
My favorite part of the year in reading class was when we spit up in two groups and had a debate on the story Tell-Tell heart. I also like the mini projects we had to do and all the activities. but what I really didn't like about reading this year is the BLOGS!!!!! they were a pain and i really didn't like having to do them every week but i got to admit i did like some of the questions you asked.
@sfreer2 good job on commenting.
@irivera2 good job on doing the blog.
My favorite part of the year in Reading class would have to be when we do the independent reading. I get so into my book and i get mad when you tell us to stop. The thing that i disliked would be the Socratic Seminars and the Mini-projects. I'm sure many people would CONCUR with me.
@jclark2 those are good reasons.
@fgoetz2 You have a good point there.
My favorite moment of reading class this year was when we did yoga and realaxing techniques. It was a whole period dedicated to realaxing and having zero stress. I honestly don't think I have a least favorite part of reading class because the whole year it has been my favorite and most fun class. It has always gone by so fast and it's at the end of the day so it's the best class to end my day.
@tnichola6
I couldn't agree more. Mrs. A. Thomas is and always will be a wonderful teacher.
@gparent5
I've heard a lot about your class and I can see why you'll miss it
I was readin Cinder but i finnished it. The most important word woulod be ball. I chose this word because Cinder wants to go the ball but has no money for a dress. She also wants to dance with the prince at the ball. All the important events in the story happen at the ball.
My favorite part of reading class this year was when we had to make a song for A Midsummer Nights Dream. Ashley, Kellar, Ohm, and made a parody of Boyfriend by Justin Beiber and it was hilarious. It was the most fun thing we did in fith period.
@tdaigle6
that was a fun time
@jclark2
Ya my grade was horrible from not doing the blogs.
My favorite part of reading class this year would probably be the class itself. Our class is probably the worst but the best. I bet we are the funniest class you had but the most stressfull to. My least favorite part of this raeding class is probably that we have to leave the great class room. Our class was the funniest class I had in awhile.
My favorite part of the year was when we did the yoga during FCAT, Shakespeare unit, and the poem analysis unit. I also liked the quiet days. The day I am doing this blog on is the quietest day all year. Mrs. A. Thomas was also one of my favorite teachers this year. My least favorite part was how everyone was loud and noisy. We missed out on a lot of cool stuff. For example we had to not watch the Lottery video because Mrs. A. Thomas was worried the class could not handle it and sadly I believe she is correct. I have heard about a ton of cool books in this class and will put them into my summer reading list, which is already at fifty or so books.
@ Gparent
Our class is really special.....
@Twithers
You got those because you misbehaved all year.
ssukin5....
That was really fun.
bsammel...
that was fun to .
My favorite part of my Reading Class in A. Thomas was when we were reading A Midsummer Nights Dream, and when we memorized and preformed the monologues. Unfortunately, my least favorite part of the year was all of the annoying kids in the class. Eh, may sound blunt, but completely true. Wasn't a huge fan of independent reading either.
@ssuskin5 It was an awesome song, too.
@llambert6 The yoga was hilarious
My favorite part of reading class was when we did group projects. I like working together and not having to do all the work on my own. The least favorite part of the class was when we were interrupted by unrelevant comments. Next year I think you should continue making interactive Powerpoints and games like you did this year. I'm a visual person and it helped me a lot.
@llambert6 the yoga was fun
@nsmith5i agree with you 100%
This is has been my favorite year at Fort Clarke ever! My favorite part of this year in reading class was probably the Yoga. It helped me on the FCAT and i fell asleep during it. My least favorite part was probably getting yelled at for what my class did... and somewhat me. It can be replaced by not having that class again!!!
@Lmiller2 great job for your last blog.
Jphan2 I liked that too!
My favorite part of this class was when we read "A Midsummer Night's Dream". I really liked the story, and it was a pretty easy unit. My least favorite part was having to remember to write to write in print because my cursive was sloppy. That could've been avoided if I hadn't wrote in cursive in the first place. Overall this has been one of my favorite middle school courses.
mflippen6
IRivera2
I agree, Fair Testing was annoying.
tdiagle6
Nice post
This year was pretty awesome. There were some bad parts like i didn't enjoy Titania s speech. It was to much to memorize. I did like watching movies and the 38 who saw murder. I also enjoyed the lottery. This year was nice and I cant think of ways to improve it.
Lmiller2 good job
jphan2 i agree.
I really enjoyed reading class. I loved all the activities that we worked together on. I loved how Mrs. Thomas had a slide for everything she taught. Reading class could not have been any better. My other favorite part of reading class was the Shakespeare lessons.
@rgatlin2
funny comments
@lmiller2
yoga was fun
This year was a fun year, my favorite part about it was well i do not really have a favorite part.But my least favorite part was the notebook test and the socratic seminar, i was never really perpared for the notebook test thats why they were one of my least favorite things of the year. And i don't think reading class should be improved.
My favorite part of reading this year has been the whole year. It was my favorite class we had fun, interesting, and crazy times. It’s sad that this year is almost over and I’m going to miss this class. My least favorite part about it though was the mini project. To make them better I think the due dates should be father apart. Also have a bigger variety of choices to do them on.
nluna6 Good post!
awilson6 I agree with you.
The favorite part of reading class this year had to be a number of things but only one negative thing. I would have to say that the first things during this year that was the best was the teaching, Mrs. A Thomas you were one of my best teachers (even though I always forgot my student code, TEHEE)you still taught really well. Also that activities we did were great and included a lot of interaction with other students which was fun. The only negative thing was the vocabulary tests, this is just me because I like those good old paper and pencil tests. I don't think there is anything you should change, I'm pretty sure that the next generation of students will enjoy you wisdom as much as we did. Were gonna miss you Mrs. A Thomas!
@Lmiller2
True yoga was fun, my happy place was mick a d's.
@OPanchal5
Things were pretty funny lol.
My favorite part of reading class this year was when worked in groups. I enjoyed the group assignment when we wrote a song about A Midsummer Night's Dream in a group and performed it for the class. What I didn't like was that the groups were made for us. It would be more fun to pick our own groups. Overall I enjoyed the class very much.
jphan2
Good job. I also enjoyed ADNPWD and working in a group. I didn't like memorizing Titania's speech either.
Cwalker5
I agree that the prank wars with Mr. Wang should not have stopped.
This year was a great 5th period. We got to talk a lot, and also learn at the same time. Also I had a lot of my friends in 5th period. My favorite part of the year was when we read ADNPWD. This was my favorite part of the year because it was a good book I got to read.
nhamilton2: good job!
Lmiller2: good post.
Lmiller2
good post
rgatin2
good final blog
My favorite part about reading class this year was learning about poetry. I liked it because poetry is engaging and interesting. It also has different ways to see things and interpret things. I also liked watching a Mid-summers Night Dream. A thing that I didn’t like was learning about what we are now. I think that it is difficult to understand and there isn’t really anything interesting about this unit. You can improve it by doing more activities with it so that 8th graders next year can understand it more.
jwalker5
That was funny about how the notebook tests "put you to sleep."
gparent5
Our class is very special.
This year’s 5th period reading class was uh……special but at the same time funny. We had our good times and bad but through all of that we still learned. One thing I enjoyed was when we got to do group work, which was sometimes impossible for our class but we managed most of the time. One thing that I didn’t like was the socratic seminars. Overall, there were more things enjoyed about this year’s reading class than there were things that were not enjoyed. Hopefully none of us come back next year! Thank you for a great year Mrs. Thomas!! #teamathom
tdaigle6
You must really like reading.
Cwalker5
Oh my gosh!!! They should totally start prank wars again next year!
Eighth grade has been an awesome year. One of my favorite things from this year was all the days where we could chill and watch slideshows and movies. Another thing I liked was all the fun times in class, there were times when certain people in the class took things too far though. One of my least favorite things was how everyone in the class couldn't handle having a sub. Another thing was how almost everyone always got in trouble.
this year was a lot of fun . my favorite was when we go to read all of the books together. my least favorite was when we had to work i groups with people we don't like. other than that it was amazing! i think that could be improved by telling student to tell you who they just can not work with.
@Lmiller2 i agree i hate the notebook tests
@rgatlin i agree this was was a lot of fun! and yea she is awesome one of my favorite teachers.
My favorite part of reading class has got to either the Shakespeare unit or the one time we had a debate to tell whether Edgar Allen Poe was insane or did commit murder. My least favorite part was the Titania speech we had to make because I messed up a few lines and it cost a bunch of points. Another least favorite was the fair testing because it was boring and it was way too long. Like there were 500 stories you had to read before moving on to the maze. But over all my 8th reading class was amazing.
@irivera2: nice post(:
@mlayne: how nice!
@nbrown5 my name is cwalkeR5
@Twithers5 thank u
I loved my reading class this year, but my favorite part of the year was the Shakespeare unit. I don't know why, but it just was. my least favorite part of the year was the poetry unit. I don't really like poetry. but honestly the whole year was great and I had a blast. I don't think anything should be added or changed to the class.
jphan2-
great post and I agree with your likes
lmiller2-
I liked your likes in your post
My absolute favorite part of this class was the Shakespeare unit. It was really interesting and I LOVED working in groups for our plays, definitely the most fun I've had in any of my classes this year! I loved a lot about your class because there was always something different that none of my other reading classes have done, like sing songs for example. There isn't much I didn't like, aside from the unit we're doing now... It's really boring. I'm so glad to have been in your class, it's made me really like a lot about reading and stuff that I've never really liked. There isn't much I'd change about it!
@eyakel6 I wasn't feeling the poetry, either.
@aisom6 I love working in groups!
I like a lot of different things about this class. One would have to be the Shakespeare unit. Another thing I liked this year was the time we did those exercises before FCAT. One of my least favorite parts though would be having to do the mini projects even though they were kind of easy. Also another one of my least favorite lessons was learning different themes. All in all this was my favorite year in middle school.
lmiller2 I agree!!!
nluna6 I know right 5th period must have been really bad.
There are many things I have liked about this year. My favorite would be when we did the cause and effect skits in front of the class. When we did those, se of them were funny. My least favorite part was having to memorize Titania's speech. I don't think anything about the class should be changed.
To me, the best part were the plays and scits we did. Everyone seemed to go all out for them and it was always very humorous. They were so fun and make sure the class next year gets to do some! My least favorite part was probally taking notes all the time. You can't change that because you need to but it was kind of boring. Honestly, don't change a thing next year. It was so fun and im going to miss it!
@Epata2 I'll miss you bro.
@Lmiller2 I see what you mean
My favorite part of this year was all the times we worked together when we were acting bad and told the teacher when it was necessary. This class has been a true journey for me from the laughs to the tears shared together I will miss it all. My least favorite part is when people shouted things that weren’t very appropriate and when people got in Chris’s “kill zone.” One thing you can do to improve your class next year is never show mercy during tug of war because I was very disappointed you guys lost especially after you made me think otherwise. All in all you did a great job, one less asd or two could have made the year better for me but things are necessary and with maturity I understand that know. Thank you.
Cwalker5- You are my hero my teacher and my soul mate friend. Ill never forget you
Twitthers5- I agree with your comment about Cwalker5
This year was very fun.But it is hard to choose a favorite since i have you twice as a teacher so I will tell my favorite moments for reading and language arts.My favorite moment in language art. is when we read the book Night.The book was one of my favorite books since I love history very much and it was very suspenseful.My favorite moment in reading is when we did the whole Shakespeare segment.I loved when we did the acting out of the scenes and everything.It was a very engaging activity that helped me learn the characters more and the subtext to.But my least favorite part of reading is when we had to read the plays because it was very hard to understand the whole play.But thanks to you,you stopped and better helped us understand the whole story more.
@irivera2 good job on your post very elaborate
@bcampbell5 great job on post and laugh out load on your least favorite moment
