As their "Mom at school", can I have a few minutes to brag about "my kids"?
Let me tell you how fabulous my class is.
First, the backstory.
This year I have been invited to participate in a number of Board projects and activities. This has meant I have been away for a half-day workshop here and there. Every single supply teacher that comes to my room leaves me a little note/Valentine telling me how much they enjoyed my students and their time in my room.
In fact, yesterday's guest referred to my kids as "a dream class". And they are.
Today was a culminating task-day for this Math project I have been a part of since the Fall. A colleague and I co-planned a lesson together and then taught it. In all, we had three different guest teachers in our room today. One to cover for me while I co-planned, my colleague,with whom I taught the lesson and then another teacher who joined later in the afternoon for a visit.
Everyone.
Loves.
My.
Class.
Everyone went on (and on and on) about how polite, independent, funny, kind, respectful, smart, and engaged my students are and I wanted to share this wonderful news with you.
I love sharing these sorts of stories with you because it reaffirms what I have said before: Your children are such wonderful representatives of you all and your hard work.
Your dream children make up my dream class.
With appreciation and respect,
"Mom" ;)
You made me cry. ;) I'm a "softy", what can I say. Thank you as well for your dedication as a super teacher and "mom at school".
ReplyDeleteAww!!! Thank you so much for your comment Mrs. P. Moms like you are the reason everyday should be Mother's Day.
DeleteThanks again, your comment made my night!
Mrs. M
Your very welcome.
DeleteNow get back to making the boy classmate and girl classmate videos. :)
LOL! I made one last night and I can't wait to show the kids. I was laughing out loud here at home while I was making it! :D
DeleteGlad I am not the only one who felt weepy reading that! You and your students are a Dream Team! Don't forget you are the dream teacher. We know you think about your kids 24/7, which is why you are their Mom.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your thoughtful and kind words Mrs. C. "Dream Team", what a great way to put it.
DeleteHello Dream Teacher,
ReplyDeleteI agree with that title. Thank youfor allowing me to spend some time with you and your class doing Math. What a bunch of Mathie kids! I love that each child was engaged, ready and eager to solve the problem and to share their solution. Hopefully I'll be invited back again soon.
They are the dream class.
Thank you so much for your comment Mrs. M. We loved having you! Thank you also for the wonderful things you said to us all. Please come back soon!
DeleteMrs. M .. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. We really appreciate all your dedication and concerns regarding our kids. They are a dream class and lucky to have a dream teacher like you...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your comment Mrs. P, what a great way to start my day! I am so lucky to have wonderful, supportive parents such as you and Mr. P in my class this year.
DeleteThank you for those kind words regarding our children. It is nice to know that our hard work is paying off. They are a great group of kids and you are a fantastic teacher. (I wish every teacher was like you :)!) As the old saying goes "It takes a village to raise a child", and you too are apart of that village. You are such a benefit to our children's lives. So thank you so much!!!! xo
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your comment Mrs. C! To end this busy week with such a kind and thoughtful comment...makes a gal feel like a million bucks! I agree with you, it does take a village and what a delight it is for me to be a part of their journey.
