There are just some days that are so depressing you just would not want a repeat of it and there are days that are really enjoyable that you wouldn’t mind having this feeling another day. Today was one of those days that I enjoyed in spite of.
It was such a busy day for my students today. We had some activities I knew they would enjoy.
First, we had to make a card for a teacher that is home sick. She is an amazing teacher and my students just love and miss her and we wanted to share that with her. We missed her for the week.
Second, we had to make play dough from scratch……….That was so much fun. I think that is the highlight of my day. My students were so excited that they get to make their own play dough and get a chance to go home with it. Surprisingly, they did exceptionally well in following directions. What a mess but oh so much fun. Great part of it all, they actually know how to clean up. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm not a bad set of kids I had for the school year.
Third, we had to practice for the upcoming school closing program. They are again doing very well in learning the poems and song. WOW!!!!! I must say I am very proud of my children (students) I consider them my own because I do take care of them when they are with me.
Teaching can be so much fun sometimes but oh so much work. Some days you just enjoy and feel so proud when the students not only learn academics but moral and spiritual lessons. And then they are days when you just look at the brats you have and ask yourself “HOW DID I EVER GOT MYSELF IN THAT OCCUPATION?”
Yes people this was my day…………and oh what a day it was.
I am so ready for this long weekend
