The Sunday Salon
We had Meet the Teacher on Friday. A bunch of my kids from my past years came to visit--I love seeing them grow up. My first ever class is in 5th grade this year. So big! And I miss my kids from last year!
This year I will have 17 kiddos in my class to start the year off and all of them came on Friday. I think that's a record! Hopefully that will be a sign of a good year! They are definitely cute. But I always forget how they come in so untrained (for a lack of a better word). It takes awhile for them to get the hang of routine, especially for those kids that didn't go to pre-k. I am always so stressed out the day before the first day of school. Last night I had a dream that we were late for lunch and that I got the way the kids went home all mixed up. Yikes! Who knows what tonights dreams will be like! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes smoothly tomorrow! I can't wait to see them!
I finished and reviewed the following books this week:

I am currently reading Extraordinary by Nancy Werlin and up next is Nevermore by Kelly Creagh.
The students start back to school on Thursday. I am always stressing the night before and I've been teaching a while. I have dreams like you too.
ReplyDeleteHave a great year.
That's a great list of books - I liked the cover on Across the Pond; shame that it didn't live up to expectations in your review though.
