Today, we officially started counting down to summer! Seriously, where has this year gone? I'm not going to lie, I'm really going to miss this class! Possibly one of the most interesting classes I've had yet! I've even had some parents ask if I'd consider looping! What a flattering request! Unfortunately, I'm not interested in leaving 2nd grade!
Anyway, we're in the TEENS people! Anyone else counting down? If so, you can grab the countdown above, here! {Helloooo, FREE!}
Saw the above glasses on Pinterest! And honestly, I had about 3 of the "don't even ask" days in a row. I'm so saddened by a parent that doesn't see/understand that I have their child's best interests in mind. Seriously, my sweets are like my own kids. Since the 3rd day of school, I've gotten letters (usually weekly - although, I've gotten 4 letters in the last 2 weeks) that attack my character, classroom management, and are a complete insult. It's heartbreaking really. Gosh, what a Debbie Downer I am! Fortunately, I forever grateful to our guidance counselor who totally went to bat for me...multiple times! Wow! I'm just so impressed!
We finished up an awesome 2-week unit on the life cycle of a butterfly today! My sweets were in love with these paper plate life cycle models! On a whim, I had my students write on an index card (great to use for quick, easy, and inexpensive formative assessments) what was represented on their paper plate. They turned out so cute, I put them up in hall!
