Snow Day…please!

I have had a ton of questions about the way I run Centers in my classroom.  I had good intentions of sitting down this evening and writing a post about everything I know and learned about Centers in my 14 years of teaching.  Well… I had the longest and hardest day of the year today.  […]

I have had a ton of questions about the way I run Centers in my classroom.  I had good intentions of sitting down this evening and writing a post about everything I know and learned about Centers in my 14 years of teaching. 

Well…

I had the longest and hardest day of the year today.  I walked out of my classroom feeling like I had been hit by a truck.  I have a group of wonderful kids, but my 27 “Firsties” wore me out…completely.  Every muscle in my body ached, I had a migraine like no other, and all I wanted to do was put on my pj’s and watch mindless T.V. all evening long.

So…

Here I am.  I am in my pj’s.  My television is on and I am going to sit.  I am going to enjoy the peace and quiet.  I am going to relax and watch my favorite show this evening without the guilt of postponing my blog post.

Hoping for a Snow Day tomorrow!  This girl sure needs one…
