Observations: As we approach the end of the first full week of school there are some routines that are working and some that are not. Part of the problem is me, and I realize that. Need to be a bit more consistent amid the chaos. I have also noticed that our mornings go so quickly. We barely get into school before it is time for snack and then lunch. In the blink of an eye. Finally, I have forgotten our poem of the day on two occasions and that's just not good. The students miss it and I do to. Need to prioritize and gain a bit more control of our days!
Overheard: Today the students were a-buzz about our new student. I kept hearing them mention the new student to each other, "don't forget to put Kevin on the list, do you think Kevin will like that desk? and Can we put Kevin on our buddy lists?" I am hoping that they will be as welcoming when he actually shows up for his first day of school!
Gratitude: Today I am most grateful for a "mostly" work free evening, time to watch a movie with Mark, and a delicious, relaxing dinner!
Favorite Moment: This may be boring, but really and seriously, my favorite moment was getting into bed and pulling the covers up around my shoulders. Ahhhh. What a terrific feeling!
