Ahhh, the first week of summer vacation.  Sleeping late, lazy days, and beginning to worry about next year.  Which of these don't belong?  Yeah, I know.  But as a teacher my thoughts are constantly on my classroom and my kids.  How many of you are already working on next year's classroom and thinking about the learning styles of the kiddos you will get?

Later this week I will post pics of my classroom and really would like some advice on how to arrange it... please overlook the mess in the pics.  I was packing up for summer.  At least you get the general idea of what the classroom looks like and what furniture I have.  Thanks in advance!!!

It's here...

Just like the title states, it's here, the end of school.  Today is called "grade card" day.  The students get off the bus, get their grade cards, say goodbye to their friends, and then reload the bus.  Literally, I will be at school for no more than 3 hours.  

It seems like the year has just begun.  The kids and I were just  beginning to fall into routine and now it ends.  I can't say I will miss it.  This year has been a rough one for me and for the students.  They were eager for it to end and I must say I am too.  Today is just a formality and then summer begins.  What are your plans for summer?

It's been a while been  too long since I posted last.  Uhm, what can I say the reason is?  A he..  of a year.  I have had unexpected surgery and was MIA for 3-4 weeks in Nov.  before that I was in and out of the ER every other weekend (or so it seemed) and whoa, what a group of kids.  I have two more days with this group and I I mean they are free, free, free.  You know like Wilbur was when he broke through the fence.  Yeah, that free.  Well, I hope to bring you tales of the past 8 months and what I have learned through it all in the next few posts.  I promise I will do better.
