On Thursday afternoon, I was scrambling to get work done and eager for 2:30 to arrive. It seemed like a week of record-breaking length and I was EXHAUSTED. I was stressed about students and curriculum and getting everything done....(you know me).
BUT - during my second last class of the day, my mood (which seemed irreversible at the time) changed after a student came over and said: "Miss Lindsay! I love science class! Look at everyone, Miss! Everyone in the class is smiling!!!" I stopped to look around the classroom and noticed that she was right. Everyone seemed happy!
Moments like these remind me of a few things:
1) I need to RELAX.
2) You're never too young to be a teacher.
3) You're never too old to be a student.
Even though the weekend is coming to a close, I am eager to begin another hectic week in the middle school!
Oh Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteI envy the students in your classes. I LOVE your blog and YOU!!!
