This is the crazy team of second grade teachers waiting for a bite to eat at the Crab Pot!
Here is the whole Seattle Crew from Oquirrh Hills Elementary! We all had a blast!
Ronda and Sherri decided to adventure to the top of the Space Needle. Don't worry we are only standing 570 feet above the ground!
Now things are back to normal at home again. I am back to work and have my classroom set up for another year. I will start teaching second grade on Monday and am a little nervous to have such little students. I met them last night at conferences and they all seem so quiet compared to the attitude-filled fourth graders I usually teach. Bob and I, both think this will be a new challenge for me, but a fun one!
During conferences last night I had two very fun experiences--the first one was that the student I went to see dance in Las Vegas came and gave me a shirt from her nationals competition. I thought that was so sweet, I will miss teaching her! She is the ideal student. I would love to have a class full of her. The second thing that happened is that I had one of my students from 4 years ago come back to visit and ask if she could come in and help me after her school gets out 4 days a week. I was so excited first to see her, but second that she wanted to come back to help me. She could hardly read when I had her in fourth grade, and now she is in straight honors classes. She said that I made her like school and that I made her want to learn. That was the best pay off I could ever have as a teacher. I look forward to working with her this next year!
Bob has been busy golfing once a week lately and loving every minute of it. His famous words when he gets home everytime is that he lost ___ balls in the water. I always just laugh. Now he has me going out to hit a bucket of balls with him every once in awhile. I enjoy that, but now he wants me to go play golf with him on the course. I told him not yet!
