Year 3 - Day 198 - July 16

I cleaned out my school bag in preparation for a work thing I'm doing all week, and found some end of the year gifts and notes inside. This is one of them.

Top Row: a picture of a book with a tree, complete with standard little kid style squirrel hole. (I used to do that too - I know that every tree doesn't have a big squirrel hole, but I always drew them) I think the 2nd picture is a house with a pool and someone swimming

Middle Row: Me (complete with glasses), another book of some sort, and a mini Smart Board

Bottom: A declaration that I'm the #1 Library teacher and the other box says "Awesome teacher."

Kids are cute. :)

Jan 23, day 23

Full disclosure- I took this on Thursday! I visited the new school of an old student I've kept in touch with. It was really fun. Luckily a mom of a current student works there so she arranged it and helped me out. He was excited to show off his new digs! He's been through a lot in the last 5 years so it's good to know he's in a good place.

Day 6 - January 6

This is a reflection on my car's roof from 7am today. When I left for work, I knew just these few flakes would cause insanity at school...what I didn't yet know was that we had 1/2 inch on the ground up at school. (I teach 35 min away.) If you haven't been in an elementary school when it flurries, you haven't experienced true craziness!
