I think I might cry on the last day. I have loved these kids with every fiber of my being. Their joy at learning and laughing has been visceral. But they are ready for Second Grade. I saw it clearly today. We have 19 more days of joyous celebration of our community and of studying something we all really love...Dragons.
I can't wait to do it all over again next year. I. Can't. Wait. I am the luckiest woman in the world.
I love your positive post ! I had one of those not so positive days and your blog reminded me how much I really do love my job...just not the nonsense that sometimes accompanies it :) I have Gr. 2 next year and I find myself talking to the Gr. 1's more and checking out the possibilities. Sept. is always exciting but my, I do love July and August too !
ReplyDeleteI loved reading this! Thank you for being so positive. I needed it today!
