Sailing Through Saturday





I, like most teachers, love many many many things about my job. Like, SO MANY things... but, one of my favorite things about my job is that I have amazing administrators. AMAZING. So, as I'm sitting here "Sailing Through Saturday" my mind drifted back to this day- the day when Mr. D taught my math lesson. He ROCKED that lesson and the kids loved every single second of it. I seriously cannot get enough of my amazing administrators!

Now, that's talent! We make wishes about eating with other adults or having a moment of peace during the day, but the honest truth there isn't anywhere we'd rather be. Lunch is a time to get to know our kids. We get to have conversations with them, find out about the latest craze to hit elementary school, and die laughing at some of their antics. But, where does this leave teachers at the end of the day? STARVING! Running to the vending machine and scarfing down anything that comes out of that machine like a Hoov...

Brag Tags... What??

I'm all about some Brag Tags. Seriously. I love them. If you haven't ever heard of Brag Tags, you're missing out- fo reals yo!   I spent a large portion of my summer printing, laminating, and cutting out brag tags. (See photo on left.) I also had a great display for the brag tags (unfortunately you can only see it in the photo on the right if you turn your head all the way around and squint and blink 156 times).  So, what do you do with those things? Is it worth it? Does it really make a difference? Don't the kids think they're dumb? That seems like a lot of work.  Those are all things I've heard over and over. So, let's ponder those things, shall we?  What do I do with them?  I give them to kids. Duh! But seriously, I started out the year wearing them on my lanyard and randomly handing them out when appropriate. Eventually I got irritated with the fact that my lanyard was always picking my clothes (and if you...
