Working on thank you cards to my sweet little students for their gifts. Two of them straight up told

me what was in the presents as they handed them over, and 3 more unwrapped theirs for me. And a bunch more aren't labeled, so I have no idea who to give these cards to. Gotta love Kindergarteners! LOL

When I taught full time it seemed every night I brought home work and was working on lesson plans etc. Plus I had IEP’s. I like substituting better now and work special 1-2 week assignments from time to time.

of being the classroom teacher. Less money, but more life. I do plan lessons now and then, but I am there more to help manage the group and check in with kiddos during lessons.
