To add to the other chaos in my life, I had back-to-back track meets Monday and Tuesday. Yesterday was our Wax Museum. On Tuesday few students had their props, signs or costumes. I hardly slept Tuesday, worrying that this would be our worst one ever. I had to get locations figured out, and props in their places for 78 students in less than thirty minutes. I was surprised when every fifth grader had a speech, and a sign, button, and prop. They were well prepared after all. Students from all of the lower grades came to watch, listen, and learn. We had over five hundred "visitors" during our afternoon run, and a packed house last night. We received compliments from everyone, and even had the Super (with his wife), and the P come.
I am hoping for some calm today and tomorrow. We are doing a short reading test today. A leveled worksheet, and playing Boggle. We need to get through today and tomorrow, as vacation starts at 3:00 tomorrow. The teachers have not had a day off since January 3. This will be a much welcomed break! I need to clean and get organized!
What did you or will you do for break?
