A fifth grade boy was the first one to arrive to our reading group today and pleaded, "Don't tell Kyle where I live." While thinking that I had no idea where he lived, I asked, "Why don't you want Kyle to know where you live?" "It's a secret," he replied.
I had all kinds of crazy ideas flashing through my mind. Is there a reason he didn't want other people at his house? Is there a problem his teacher should be aware of? Is he okay? Had he had an argument with Kyle?
Then he announced to the reading group, "Kyle says he is coming to my house tomorrow to play Xbox, but I won't be home. I am staying at grandma's tomorrow."
