sorry it has been so long...

i know it has been along time since i have posted, but i am afraid this year i am going to earn my money. i have 19 very busy , energetic, active, did i say loud, unattentive class. if i could give a ritalin salt lick as they entered my class to help them focus on the task at hand, i would. for some reason that is illegal? hmmmmm don't know why? those of you that are teachers, you know what i mean. some of you others might know too.
i am the math teacher. now math lends itself to playing lots of math games during my lesson to get across what i am trying to teach them. so it is not like i am lecturing my class for the math time. we are busy, actively learning. but i have seen attention spans longer in an infant.

on the flip side, i do really enjoy the personalities of the 37 students. they are funny, witty, and sweet. there are some very endearing students in my class. and most of them are still eager to please at this age. which is why i love third grade students.

so by the end of the day, i am just a little tired. my legs aren't hurting quite as much as they were as last week. sometimes after my children go to bed all i want to do is sit and veg. but i promise as the weeks go by i will do more posting.

oh, by the way i changed my blog so everyone can read it, i will just have to approve the comments.

bye for now, i love ya.
