My first year of teaching was pretty much the best thing ever. I don't think it could have gone much better. I absolutely loved my students. They made me laugh every day and when I was extremely frustrated with a student or an entire class period, they would make me smile. The frustrating parts were few compared to all the wonderful things about teaching.
I feel really lucky to have chosen this as my profession. I love it and I feel like this is where I belong. I honestly cried when school ended. Thursday was my last day with my students and I cried a lot that night and also the next night. One of my students made a little book that I could have students sign. It was really fun to read what they wrote. Some of my students brough in gifts the last couple of days.
All of the gifts were very thoughtful and kind. Logan, my student who gave me a clapper for Christmas brought in the grass we had grown in class when we were talking about agriculture and overgrazing. It was really long since he hadn't cut it at all. It cracked me up that that is what he brough in - he has a pretty funny sense of humor. Sidenote - for those of my students who are reading this, just because I did not mention your gift or card by name does not mean it was not important to me, I loved them all. Logan's was just totally random.
I worry that next year will not be as fun or as wonderful as this year was. Could it get better then this year? I don't know. We will have to wait and see. Right now, I am enjoying my summer and loving the fact that I can sleep in. Oh yeah!!!
