Teaching Kindergarten

and sometimes they teach me

Break is almost over…..

I’ve been out of school for so long that I can’t even remember what we were teaching/learning when we went on break.  I don’t think I’m going to be able to find things in my room either.  Classes start back for our rotation next Thursday.  I will probably spend some of tomorrow (Friday) and most of the first part of next week at school getting ready to start back up.

I’m really bummed reading all the other teacher blogs I follow.  Everyone is talking about winding down the school year and I still have a third of my year to go.

If you teach kindergarten, is anyone going to the national, “I Teach K” conference in Las Vegas this year?  It looks like Title One is going to let us go this year.  It would be fun to connect, if anyone is going to be there.

OK, I haven’t Really dropped off of the planet……

Last week was Spring Break, and I’m also in a year-round school setting where right after Spring Break we do our turn at vacation time.  Instead of one long summer break we get three smaller breaks throughout the year.  I’m out for another two weeks.  The unfortunate thing is that it’s my LAST break until the end of the year.  So I haven’t done much about thinking school.  In fact I haven’t done much in the vicinity of the school.  Like I’ve been literally on the other side of the planet.  My wife and I took a trip to Italy over Spring Break and although we are back, my head isn’t really back.  Other than earthquakes (of which we were thankfully not too close too) I would definitely recommend Italy.  In capital letters…….
