Still here!

"Mrs. M, are you still doing your blog?" 

It's been a while hasn't it? Room 208 is still here, we're just doing things a little differently these days. Lots of Boom Cards, video making and like everyone else, bread making! 



We are set up quite nicely in our Google Classroom and it's great to see my students in that capacity, but it's nothing like our home away from home at school. 
 


Nothing will ever replace our plants, reading places, stuffies, and most importantly, our little community. This time at home has certainly affirmed that.  What's also been affirmed is that in the classroom is where I belong. 







I'm not sure what day we're on with respect to how long we've all been at home and apart. I do know that it's Thursday, so that's a plus; but it didn't take long to realize how much I value my time spent with my students, in my classroom.  I miss their handshakes in the morning, the little notes left on my desk, laughing together, reading together, watching light-bulbs go off and accidentally being called "Mom".  And the photos! I miss all the photos and videos we'd make as a class! They're always so fun to share with our 208 families and friends! 

While it was fun to drink my coffee while it was still hot for a few days there when we were first ordered to stay home, I would happily take cold coffee forever to go back to Room 208 tomorrow.  


I hope everyone is doing as well as can be expected during this time.  It can be hard to know what to write about in this space when you've moved digital homes, so to speak, but this blog is still here and visitors can be sure that like that big blue chair in my classroom, we're not going anywhere.
