Did we all survive this week? Can I just say that this week has drug on so slooooow. I thought Friday would never get here. I bet next week goes by in a nervous, excited, stressed out emotional blur. 8 days. People, 8 days. My to do list is multiplying. I know you all have tons of free time so feel free to chip in and help a dude out! Here’s my wedding tidbit for the day: We met with the florist today for our final meeting to hash out details. Picture it: Sicily. Oh wait, I’m not a Golden Girl (a boy can dream, right?!) Tall glass cylinders. Tall willow branches with a large collar of green hydrangeas. Green orchids suspended in the branches. Surrounded by candles. I’ll give you a second. I know…right?! Just hearing the assistant say they had ordered us cases of hydrangeas and purple and orange calla lilies made me cry. I said…emotional. I hope you’re all ready for a week of my incessant wedding ramblings. If it gets too much, someone slap me and tell me to hush up. Or give me your best teacher look!
Today I just want so share a few random and amusing occurrences in from Monsters Inc. There will not be any earth shattering teaching revolutions…no AHA moments (Sorry, Oprah!)….no life altering teaching ideas….just the deranged thoughts of this male Kindergarten teacher! Aren’t ya’ll so glad you have accepted me into your world?!
Next week we are celebrating Read For The Record with a week long celebration. Each year we have a door decorating contest. This year our theme is “Gettin Buggy With Books!” (I know right…wonder who had the brilliant idea?! HMMMM). We spent a lot of today preparing our door. The final version will be unveiled in my Manic Monday post. Be there. As part of our door, I always incorporate writing ( I know…work smarter…wait, according to some higher up, I don’t work…oh well, I digress). We used the writing prompt “______________ is buggy about____________” The kids wrote their names and their favorite book.
Here is one of my favorites: *ick a Pumpkin. Right? How can you not love kindergarten??
