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! :)

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!
