Thank you to all of the parents who kept the class entertained during our Christmas party. We had plenty to eat and students played some challenging games like stacking cups and plates, bouncing table tennis balls into cups, and hooking candy canes using only their mouths. Perhaps the most shocking part of the party was when ZOEY guessed closest to the number of M&Ms in all three containers. I can't thank those parents enough for running the show. I'm not one for parties and party games, so these are the days I leave to people with completely different skill sets than my own. At the same time, for everyone who brought gifts for the teacher, those gifts are greatly appreciated. As a friend of mine said she doesn't teach for the gifts or the money. To tell the truth, most of us probably wouldn't teach if they didn't pay us, but the gifts are icing. More than anything, you make me feel appreciated which just drives me to do better. As always, thank you. | |
