Closure

My last day in my class was a bittersweet. It was great to see how much my kids have progressed and how far they have come but of course it was sad to say bye to all there adorable faces. It was their field day so when I got there they were exhausted but still a little lively. We watched the Magic School Bus and after that they each gave me a goodbye card that they made. Reading all there sweet cards brought tears to my eyes. Mrs. Collins got me a cute little makeup bag and a devotional prayer book for graduates. I hope to go visit them before school lets out so I can see them one last time. This year as been such a wonderful experience and I hate to say goodbye but I know that we are all moving on to great futures.

Three More Mondays

This is my second year as an intern and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Fortunately my two mentor teacher have been wonderful to me and gave me wonderful feedback for when I want to teach. Coming into Ready Set Teach last year I was set on becoming a teacher and after these two years I know that without a doubt this is what I want to do.

Being with those kids for just the hour and a half I'm there is awesome and brings joy to my days. I can only imagine what it will feel like whenever I have my own classroom and get to spend all day every day with them.

As the end is approaching quickly I get more and more sad to leave this all behind but I am thrilled to see what my future holds. I hope to spend these last couple of weeks with my second graders and make so many good memories with them that I can cherish forever. I hope that I can get just a few more tips in before I go and even go by Mrs. Hunkers class and say goodbye to her. This has all been such a great experience and a chapter in my book that is ending wonderfully.
