Wow...it's been almost a month since my last blog. Sorry the life a new teacher is pretty crazy! I know people say all the time that teachers have it nice working 9 months of the year and being off by 3:30. Well I'm here to tell you that I'm still waiting for a day that I get off work at 3:30. Heck I'm waiting for a day I get off at 5:00. Anyways life is good, teaching is great! Love my kids...serioulsy the cutest class of 2nd graders ever (so I may be just a little biased but oh well).
Anyways nothing is new but I do have a cute story...you're probably sick of them by now oh well get used to them. My students every once in a while ask if we can talk about me and then
I let them ask me like 3 questions. Well on Monday they asked and so I gave them 2 questions. My 1st question was "teacher do you want a boyfriend?" I responded "yeah that would be nice I wouldn't mind having one." Then my adorable little Anakela said..."well then let's go to the store and get you one!" I laughed and said "um honey you can't buy a boyfriend." She replied "No but if we all go over to the store then we can wander around until we find a guy and then we'll tell him that he needs to date our pretty teacher." That's when I had an ahhhhh! moment. I thought that was precious...they are seriously such sweet little kids...I adore them and look forward to seeing them evey day. In fact when I had to get a sub I totally missed my kids and sat and thought about what they were doing with the sub the whole time.
One more cute story and then I'll end I promise. So last week my principal came in to watch me teach for a half hour. Well whenever he walks through the door I get super nervous. So not sure if it was my being nervous or that it was pretty hot in our classroom for some reason or probably more likely a combination of both. Anyways my face felt like it was on fire. So my principal gets up and leaves and one of my little girls says..."Miss Wintle your face is red you look like a Strawberry!" I said "oh great... a strawberry huh?" And then one of my other students said...."It's ok you look like a very pretty strawberry!" It made me laugh!
Well that's it for now...I'm going to try to get some pictures of some of our fun stuff at school up this week though...so keep watching!
