Oh my goodness, I soooo needed this boost!
I barely made it to the holiday weekend & now it's already over!
This was the weekend for me to finally sit down & figure out just what happened over the past couple weeks. To tackle my to-do list and then create another. To re-work all my carefully planned centers and assessment trackers now that I've actually met my new students & realized they won't work "as is. "
I did tackle so many things, but unfortunately ran out of extra time to try out that new "work-balance" I was hoping to find this school year. So I'm feeling slightly more prepared, yet also a bit tired!
If you're having the Monday Tuesday morning blues,
♥ !!! What a beautiful letter! And we all see examples of this every single day. Our influence on our students is much greater than our lesson plans. This is just what I needed this morning.
Please pass it on!
This is such a beautiful letter. I hope that I never forget what it feels like to be the "mom", as I teach my kindergartners. :-)
ReplyDeleteHang in there! I think we need another week (or two) to feel like we are on solid ground.
