Yesterday marked the end of another school year for me. This past school year was pretty rough (remember grad school?) and I have been looking forward to this summer for a long time. Today officially marks my first day of summer and that is my number one FAVORITE!!
Blogging
I took this week off from the blog because of the chaos of the end of the school year coupled with not feeling good–I’ve missed it! I’ve missed reading my blog list each day and participating in the community that’s been created. Not blogging this week has really made me appreciate the friendships I’ve formed through this! It’s always a FAVORITE!
Bonus Questions
For my exam this year, I decided to give a really easy bonus question that everyone could answer. I had my students tell me ONE thing they learned in English this year.
I got answers like this…
…which made me laugh. And then I got answers like, “Reading The Skin I’m In over the summer and talking about it at the beginning of school really helped me to be comfortable with who I am.” And this was my most FAVORITE answer because I felt like I finally accomplished something this school year. It may have taken the very last day to find out, but it made me happy because that was my goal with that novel! And very happy for that student!
Awards
My mom was recognized yesterday for an award she had won earlier in the school year. She’s the best teacher and mom ever and definitely my FAVORITE person!!
Summer Plans
I cannot wait to finally have a somewhat free summer! I plan on establishing a daily routine of exercise, good eating, and reading/tv watching haha! I wished the school year away because I knew that meant grad school would be over, so here’s to wishing for summer to crawl by!
