Teacher of the Month

I had a great surprise on Monday.  During the morning announcements, I heard my name called as "Teacher of the Month" as nominated by my peers.  It was completely unexpected.  I had my class quiet, because I knew one of my students would be "Student of the Month" for 5th grade.  When they heard my name, they all yelled and cheered.  It was really sweet.  I do love those kids!  I just wanted to share my happy moment! :)


[Updated to include Currently]

March Currently!


Listening: Pandora Adele channel... I couldn't survive without Pandora!  Well, I could but my life would be very quiet.  They just seem to get it right with my mood every time! :)

Loving: I was asleep before Wheel of Fortune was over last night.  Knocked out!  My mom called me at 8:30 to congratulate me on getting TOTM, and that conversation lasted maybe 30 seconds before she told me to go back to sleep. :)  14 hours of sleep feels great!

Thinking: I love my Keurig.  I never get a bad cup of coffee.  I love being able to have more than one cup on the weekends.  When I become rich (from teaching, haha), I'm going to put a Keurig in my classroom, so I can have more than one cup! :)

Wanting: I read Safe Haven in two days over Thanksgiving break.  I have been waiting for the movie!  Now I just need someone to go with me!!

Needing: Planning science always scares me.  We have been covering ecosystems for 2 weeks.  It's going really well, but it still scares me.  This coming week we will look at terrestrial ecosystems.  The following week we will cover aquatic ecosystems/make terrariums.  Eek!

Like: Feeling relaxed - thank you 14 hours of sleep!
Love: Coffee - it's not an addiction.  It's true love!
Hate: Clutter - yet, it seems to never leave my classroom.  If I clean one area, I just find it has move to another area.  Ick!

  3. Congratulations on Teacher of the Month! Yay you! I want to go see Safe Haven too. I planned to go see it and then at the last minute we changed our minds and saw Identity Thief. Now I need to work out a time to see that! So glad to find you through Currently!

  4. Umm . . . I haven't gotten 14 hours of sleep in over three years! Congrats on that! And the Teacher of the Month, too! We don't do Teacher of the Month, just Teacher of the Year.
