OT: Three more days of school

YEA Three more days of school, YEA Three more days of school, YEA Three more days of school, YEA

Don't get me wrong. I love being a teacher...but I do LOVE my summers! This class has been...well, let's just say very interesting. I've had a total of 11 students move or transfer this year. A norm for me is about 2 a year. I have had some of the worse cases of unmedicated ADHD I've ever seen. I have a few parents that have a tall-cup-of-crazy to jump start their day and then pass on the love to me

HOWEVER, I have the sweetest class! They are ALL kind hearted and loving! Most of them are hard workers and just need some extra love and to know that someone cares about their education. That part I will miss!!!!

Happy summer!

LOL! DS #1 has 4.5 more days and I am THRILLED! I am quite tired of the third grade and I only have to live it in the evenings during homework. Anyone need help with double digit multiplication or need a map of the US labeled with all the states?!

So at the end of the school day today (last one with kids, I still have to report tomorrow and then that is IT) I was the first person running out my door and cheering - how embarrassing!
