Summer Time


I am so happy that it is finally summer time. Time to BBQ, hang with friends, & take a breather from the stress of "regular" life. Although I have yet to teach in my very own classroom, I can only imagine the bittersweet feeling it is to leave your students. I was with the first graders for about 10 weeks (90 hours) & it broke my heart to have to say goodbye. I felt as though I made an impact; & they confirmed that for me when I had 24 six year olds hugging me [at the same time]! What a great feeling...to know that I left a mark for those kids at such a young age. I am excited to continue collecting artifacts and using TPT as much as possible. I will get into another elementary classroom & will be able to help my future mentor teacher set up their classroom & be present on the first day of school. HOW EXCITING :) Enjoy the summer months, stay cool & keep checking for updates on this lovely journey I am taking to becoming a teacher!

Until Later,

Amanda
