What I'm Loving Wednesday


1. I'm LOVING that I got off work earlier today! I heart early release days on the last Wednesday of each month!

2. I'm really loving that I'm almost all the way done planning and making centers for February! Can you believe February is next week? January flew by!

3. I'm loving that I got asked to go to professional development training in the Common Core Standards for English Language Arts/Reading! My principal and reading coach picked two people  (one for math and one for reading) from K-2 to become experts on the Common Core and then teach our grade level about the standards. I'm very excited for this opportunity and think it will help solidify my spot at my current school for another year!

4. Trying really hard to love going to the gym and an abs class tonight that will most likely kick my booty!

5. I am loving that my students are now finally back into the routine of school!

6. Lastly I know everyone is LOVING that we are mid-way through the week!

Happy Teaching!

      Yes we had a short week last week too! Every Wednesday we have "early day" and the kids gets released an hour earlier. This is usually a time for staff meetings, professional development, or just getting work done in our classrooms for an hour but on the last Wednesday of every month our principal lets up leave after we are finished with afternoon duty (once the kids are gone) and it's so wonderful! Thanks for reading and I hope you are having a great week too!

      Thanks so much! I hate changes to the schedule. It throws everyone off! :( Maybe you could do something super fun on Friday if they hold it together for your schedule changes tomorrow! Thinking of you and hope you get through the rest of the week smoothly!
