The year went out with a bang! Over the past week of classes, my homeroom kids have watched 5 movies, played outside way longer than normal, jammed with a dj for a few hours, took part in an incredible talent show, and checked off their 6th grade year. You should have seen the drama that took place yesterday at 3:00 when the bell rang. Tears, tears, and more tears. Think back to your middle school days, and you will remember the drama and emotions. You would have thought these kids would never see each other again. And the worst...a few of my students are going to the OTHER junior high, and will be separated for 2 years from their bestest of friends. Oh my goodness. Life didn't appear like it would go on...and I soaked it all up! It was hard not to laugh, but I tried to sympathize and give some advice.
Needless to say, summer is here, and I am pretty excited! Wes and I were eating dinner last night on the back deck, and we listed things I wanted to get done this summer. He told me several things he wanted me to get done, and I brought up to him that this was my BREAK. He admitted that he was trying to live through me because I get the summers off, and I agreed to add some of his to-do's on to my list. I've got my list, now I just have to prioritize. So my list is what you will reading about this summer. I'm starting with a deep clean of the house...get excited!
