I am “tho thick” as my Teeny Tiny friend would say.
I mean really sick. This is not the flu, this is torture!
Here is what happened….
One of my students exhaled (in a big huff) right in my face on Tues.
{who just did an involuntary shudder or heave?}
{I know I did.}
Guess who did not come to school Wednesday ?
HER!
Guess who went home sick at lunch on Wednesday?
ME!
I deserve hazard pay!
I dragged myself back to work on Thursday and
barely made it though Friday.
b a r e l y
At after school duty my admin said,
“Katie, go home now.
I love you and you are the best teacher at this school.”
Ok, the last part I made up…
She did tell me to go home, get better, and
that she would finish my duty.
I was so sick I could only get half way
through all my linky parties yesterday…
So I’m linking up with Doodle Bugs a day late.
It’s a good thing they don’t charge,
because I would probably be a dollar short too!
My class completed our timeline. I let them choose which picture
would represent me. This is not the one I would pick,
but they are happy so
eh…
I’m happy too…
My hips are not that big.
I adore the “Little Love” that drew this.
Having the class vote for her drawing may have been
the highlight of her year.
So, I’m taking one for the team…
We are studying Washington for the week.
The student art and writing turned out great!

This calendar makes me soooo hiz-appy!
Chinese New Year on Friday the 8th
100th day on the 12th
Valentines Day the 14th
Training the 19th
And tracking off day the 22nd!
I wrote a post all about year round school and tracking off {here}.
If you don’t know what it is, let me tell you… it’s a good thing!
You know what else is a good thing?
This little guy!
He will be celebrating his 100th day as a “kinderbear” on Monday.
He was so cute while gluing on the eyes…
After about 10 he would say, ok time to take a break!
I would have to coax him back.
I applied the glue he put the eyes on for what seemed like HoUrS.
Of course, as I finished I looked carefully at the package...
The eyes were SELF ADHESIVE!
I told you guys I was sick!!! I can't think straight!
Well, that’s all folks.
This momma needs to head into
the “The Master” as Little Bear calls it
and watch the 70’s TV Show “The Land of the Lost” with "The Boys".
It’s our Saturday morning tradition.
We just bought the whole {corny} series from Amazon.
They love the show, so I love it.

Remember the big sale this Sunday!
Click the pic to go shopping in my store.
Sending love to ya’ll as my Texan friends would say!

I love this unit! It's great seeing your unit in action. We'll be starting in a couple of weeks. Your stuff is so awesome! I can't wait to see what else you come up with. :) Those George Washingtons are just about the cutest thing ever.
ReplyDeleteI also love seeing how kids draw me. I think maybe they just wanted you to be wearing a very puffy skirt. :)

I just found you and really like your blog! Your son's hat is kinda scary looking with all those eyeballs looking out but so cute and funny at the same time! Does that make sense? I look forward to hearing more about your daily teaching adventures! I hate it when they don't do the vampire when they cough or exhale and the wind/air coming out of their mouths just wooshes past your face! Do we need to put sanitizer on our faces too?! :o)
