Let me just warn you that I am about to jump all over the place on this post. I have some of my pics from the past two weeks back logged and wanted to share some happenings in my life.
On Thursday,I received a letter from my local Congressman George Holding in my teacher box at school. I looked at this huge envelope in my box and thought, "Oh my goodness! What is that?" It almost felt like Christmas morning. Then I saw it was from the House of Representatives and couldn't wait to tear it open to find this inside.
The envelope also contained an framed certificate, but I left it at school. So, no pics right now. let's just say I was in teacher heaven. I still can't believe this is happening to me! I also had a television interview with our school news channel. I felt like I babbled on and on. I am one of those people that doesn't like hearing myself on any type of video or recording. Gosh, I am too critical of myself, but I really think I have a type of OCD . I just want it all to be perfect. :)
The week before last, my students and my coworkers students created this pretty piece of art for our assistant Ms. K. The students wrote tiny messages on the sprinkles and we hung it between our two classes to surprise her on her special day. she loved it! Our kids did an amazing job of keeping it a secret.
Also last week, my students began the writing process. Narratives! Such a big component of 2nd grade! One of my sweet students wrote this about her best friend. Too cute! This activity really gives me an insight about each child. Thus, I enjoy having my students complete this writing every year. It was created by the talented Amy lemons and can be found for free {HERE}!
My plans for next week include seasons, weather, and Johnny Appleseed!
It is that time of year my friends!
