Some days, I think....
WOW! It's ALREADY the ____ th day of school!
Today is not one of those days.
Today I am thinking, is it ONLY day 58??!!
That means we still have 119 days LEFT??!@#@!?
Don't get me wrong-- I love these kids and I love what I do,
but I have quite a group this year! Here are my list of gripes:
~They cannot/will not sit still.
~They cannot/will not be quiet.
~They cannot/will not get their work done!!
~They cannot/will not get along.
~They cannot/will not __________!
I am exhausted today. Who am I kidding?
I'm exhausted/frustrated EVERYDAY!
Okay, I think I'm done venting. Thank you!
Onto some good news.
Our district Math coordinator visited
my classroom last week and LOVED what I was doing.
Very simple, but effective.
The kids GOT IT, and that's what is important!
Plus, I got this ticket (sorry it's blurry!)
because the coordinator
"Spied Marvelous Math"

Now I'm entered into a drawing for free Starbucks.
And that, my friends, puts a smile back on my
exhausted/frustrated face!
