Those last two weeks before break we're crazy busy! I fully intended to write as soon as break started, but I received a rather unpleasant gift from my students-the worst cold of my life! It made for a rather miserable break. I guess I needed the time to relax and recharge, though. Anyway, two weeks of break and I'm almost back to 100% health. We have a professional day Monday and students start back on Tuesday, unless we get a snow day!
It's time to get back into school mode. Here is a glimpse back to the week before Winter Break:
We went to the zoo two days before break began. Crazy? Yes, we might have been. We returned to school with all the students and they had a great time. It was a successful trip! Plus, we learned about elephants and rain forest animals!
On the last day of school before Winter Break, a local private high school sent a class of Sophomores to our school to do holiday activities with the kids. They began the day making these cute paper bag reindeer. Then, one of the highschoolers dressed as Santa and each student received a wrapped gift. It was really impressive the thought and care put into the event by the high school students.
While the rest of the school watched movies in the afternoon, my class went on a "secret" mission walking trip. More on that tomorrow!
