1. The first and last days of the school year
I love the first day of school for all the hopes and dreams and plans that I have. The promise of new things learned.
I love the last day of school for the memories and reflections and all things learned.
What is your favorite thing about your career?
LOVED reading all 10! Those are a perfect list!!!
ReplyDeleteAw. I love it! Simple and to the point.
ReplyDeleteTop Ten- awesome idea! I love the pens too. Colorful, fine point sharpies are my personal fav
ReplyDeleteI always hate the first day of school. ;P It's not because school is starting, I'm always ready to go back, well almost always. It just always seems so unorganized and some of the parents like to stay for too long. Now that I am writing this, maybe I am the one who hasn't been organized...I'll have to think on that one.
ReplyDeleteI love the little notes or when a small group decided to write a play or a song all on their own. I love seeing the lightbulb go on when they get it for the first time. And of course, I love types of markers. :D

I love the excitement of first graders! I love that I get to be the happy moment of their day. I love that I stand at the cafeteria door and say good morning to them each day.
