I’ve been doing well so far with not staying too late in the classroom during the weekdays, even though this week has been full of meetings and Open House shenanigans. I’m taking a step back to enjoy the beautiful weather and Tet this weekend. The kids have been doing so awesome. I’ve really been enjoying grading these Van Gogh paintings of theirs. See more here.
To say that I’ve been busy might be an understatement these days. It’s already October, I can’t believe how quickly time flies by. Autumn is my favorite season, because, aside from the beautiful weather, there are so many things that I always have planned around this time. It’s been hectic for sure trying to juggle work and play and work again, but I think things are settling down a bit so that I have a clear routine of what to do. A few images from my classroom. It’s still a work in progress, but the classroom has been one of my favorite spots to think and work lately, especially when the day is over and the kids have gone home, and I have the room to myself to work for an hour after school. A few students have been using my little thinking spot under the clouds this past week also.
… a few things that have made my Friday more enjoyable yesterday after having a tough week so far
… breakfast tacos as we’re gearing up for teacher’s appreciation week
… my collection of window greenery is growing everyday
… and bisqueware that have finally been taken out of the kiln.
… and the students’ animal piggy banks have turned out so amazing, not to mention no explosions or major mishaps for my first round!
