The first thing that went through my head this morning when I woke up was "Last Day of School! Last Day of School!" Just like Nemo did in the movie Finding Nemo (except he was saying First Day of School!). There is something special about the last day of school for teachers. On one hand, you are excited to start summer vacation! You worked hard all year, and in a few weeks you get to start all over again with a new bunch! On the other hand, you think about all the time you spent with these students and how much they have grown. You think about the kids who drove you crazy, and realize those are the ones you are going to miss the most! It is a bittersweet day, but we kept busy and made it through!
When I arrived at school, there was this......
It was a huge cake from a family saying thank you to our staff. We really do have the best parents here....I am sure it was delicious, but I wouldn't know because I did not have any. Not even a taste of frosting! At one point, I was avoiding the teacher's room because I did not want to be tempted! I had my MF chocolate chip cookie dough bar....and it was delicious!
So, the day started with an awards ceremony, then my students went to PE. When they came back, we had a make your own sundae bar. Here is what was left....
after dishing out 23 bowls of ice cream, I drank my water and a MF tropical punch. All the leftovers were thrown out (to be honest, there really wasn't too much left over!)
The rest of the afternoon was spent cleaning out desks, lunch (I had some MF mixed berry cereal crunch), passing out last minute papers that never got handed back, then we had our Moving Up Day, where the kids get to go and meet their teacher for next year. Then it is back to the classroom, pack up, and head out!
Our school has a tradition where the busses circle around the bus loop a million times, and all the teacher's line up and wave. It was great! Then I had to speed home so my husband could go to work!
MF Pretzels in the car on the way home, scrambled eggs with veggies for my L&G, a MF mint chocolate soft serve to end the day.
Even with the challenges today....another 100% on-plan! Yea!
I hope everyone had a great day today!!!
