Wishing those of you who are now on Summer Break a very relaxing time. As someone that taught for 33 1/2 years, the very first FULL day of vacation was always the beginning of possibilities of things to do that I didn't get to do during the school year. In fact, I remember dreading the alarm clock going off at 6 a.m. during the school year yet during the summer, I gleefully got up at 6 a.m. because the day was all mine! I wanted to seize every bit of the day. Enjoy each and every day of your vacation. It will go too quickly! Read a book; garden; listen to music; take a pottery class; visit with friends and family; take a trip; sit by the pool (or visit someone who has one); binge watch a series (so many great ones on Netflix―see below); and, most importantly, take a break from thinking about school! Really! Even if it is only for a couple of weeks, place thinking about your classroom on hold for just a wee bit!
Of course, if you are on the computer, please check in from time to time as I will continue to make blog postings, update my website for teachers/kids and add new teaching resources to my store.
For those of you who have school or summer school during July and August, I will continue to update my blog as well as my website for teachers and kids. Please continue to check in as you may find something of value to use with your students!
