Graduation is always a crazy but special time. It's really hard to believe that another school year has come and gone. This time of year is bittersweet for me. I'm definitely ready for a summer break, but I know my time with this group of kids is almost over. I think back to those first few weeks when we were all getting to know each other, the kids were learning what I expect of them and I was observing all the different skill levels and personalities, and I really wondered how this was all going to work out. It turned out to be a wonderful year. It always does, but I still have those first few moments of panic. In a few short months, I have to start over with a brand new group of kids.
Tuesday night was a time to celebrate what we have accomplished. I can confidently send this group of kids to first grade. They can all read, they can all write and one of their favorite things to do right now is write all the numbers from 1 - 100. They have a desire to learn and curiosity that exhausts me at times. They are funny. I can joke with them but when it's time to get down to business, they do.
I want to thank all you parents for all the hard work you have done. You make my job and your child's learning so much more successful when you get involved.
I took a few pictures before graduation, but that's all I could do. Hope you enjoy the ones I have.
