We made it to school for an entire day today...and, the best part was the weather! We experienced a bit of a heatwave with temperatures soaring around 50 degrees. Needless to say, we couldn't tear ourselves away from recess...so we gave our students (and ourselves) some much needed Vitamin D exposure. Boy, was nearly an hour in the sun uplifting. And, warm enough to enjoy WITHOUT being bundled up like Randy on The Christmas Story.
Honestly, I didn't feel very successful as a teacher today. One student slept the ENTIRE morning, many just couldn't stay focused on our lessons, another had the wiggles, and yet another needed a speeding ticket for talking too much! Arghhh...and, when my students' parents check out the newsletter they are going to think I've lost a few marbles. We are experiencing some heavy-duty catch-up work, not only at school, but also at home...sorry to my wonderful, supportive parents. We've got to get them ready for 3rd grade!
Does anyone know a Spring Dance routine? The Snow Dance is no longer the hype...
