Yesterday afternoon, the 1st/2nd grade teacher was gone for a public school choir concert (she teaches choir at the high school in the mornings), so one of the education students from Bethany subbed in her room.
Today was another principal's meeting, so Mr. E had a different Bethany student sub in his room. Both of them had great things to say about the school and they said they had a great experience.
At the beginning of the year I told the students who had birthdays in the summer that they could pick a day in the school year to bring birthday treats and we'd celebrate on that day. (I give them a Brain Break certificate as their bday present). So today one of the 5th graders brought in cookies to share with the class. I don't think she planned this, but she had an extra cookie. She wrapped it in a paper towel and asked me if I would make sure the sub in the 7th/8th grade room would get it. My kids have such giving hearts!
Once again, the 5th graders got everything packed up in three minutes at the end of the day. This morning, one of them told me that they're making a book based on the "What does the fox say?" YouTube video which reminded me of another YouTube video that got made into a book: Marcel the Shell with Shoes on. They loved it. So much. Ms. J was laughing her head off over by her desk. Then everyone started quoting the video while we did our highs and lows for the day. One of them saw that there's a second Marcel video, so now they want to watch that one tomorrow.
