Are you enjoying your winter break? I am. For no other reason, than I can sleep in until 7am. And I don’t have to do breakfast on the run. Well… and the only person asking to use the bathroom is 3, so there’s no judgment as to whether the asker actually has to use the bathroom or wants to text someone or wants to take a walk or is bored… etc.
It’s nice to hang out with people eager to learn pretty much anything I want to teach them. Right now, both toddlers are engrossed with plastic letters, determinedly searching for those that “spell their name”. If only I could get my reading students as engrossed in reading anything!
These breaks are so needed! After months of 50+ hour weeks, it’s nice to just be able to work on things in a relaxed manner. No rushing to fit every thing in, using the bathroom when needed instead of desperately waiting for the lunch bell to ring. Tomorrow I’ll be back in my classroom trying to get organized for the coming months and finish up those lingering essays. I’m hoping that next week I’ll be able to get a couple of days in to do some lesson planning with the Mimio – that is the plan. Happy Relaxing Holiday.
