Well, it's that time again! Summer vacation is coming to a close, and the stores are filled to the brim with new school supplies anticipating being taken to their new destination. This Monday I will get up at 6:00 a.m. once again (which may be a little difficult!) :) and dress in something "professional." Choosing something to wear other than my usual summer attire....shorts and a t-shirt (or worse: a swimsuit!). Carry myself to the annual "smile and shake," and visit for 20 minutes before hearing the state of the union address given by the superintendent. Then sit through a week's worth of inservice, which always reminds me why I need to make my teaching interesting....ha. Then the kids will return on the 18th to meet their new teachers for the year, and for classes on the 19th. I think what I've learned the most in the last twenty-two years of teaching is not to sweat the small stuff, let the kids know you care, and above all keep a good attitude. Attitude is everything. It's another 170 days of work for me! I finished my classroom this morning. It's all ready for the kiddos.
