Yep, 2 in one day.... I'm all thinky-like.
Lest I be labeled as an ungrateful curmudgeon, I ought to share some things that make me come back to my classroom every day.....
Like one little chickie who showed up on Sept. 6 without knowing a single letter, a single color, how to spell or even recognize her name, or even how to hold scissors..... girlfriend actually WROTE a couple of words, kindergarten style, in her journal today. That tells me I've accomplished something.
One other little guy taking a second stab at kindergarten successfully made a pattern today with his beans. First time ever without one-on-one guidance through the process.
A group of happy little faces on my carpet who are excited about sharing what they wrote in their journals this morning about "What I like to Eat in the Fall," because they stretched out "corndog" and spelled it "kordok" or spelled "apple" as "abl" and they know I will be over the moon excited about that.
I show up for that stuff.
