Um, I’m doing a big ole happy dance…with glitter…because it’s 2 weeks of Spring Break! Yes. 2 weeks. Can I just say it’s just in time!!! We do have a training tomorrow but the kids are gone so Spring Break is underway!
Since we’re not in school for St. Patrick’s Day this year, we celebrated today! We had a visit from Lucky The Leprechaun and enjoyed a shamrock shake and even an extra special treat with “The Wizard of Oz!”
Speaking of Lucky the Leprechaun, thank you to all of the adults who show horror movies to small children and ruin the fun of a leprechaun. I actually had a student have a meltdown when we returned to find that our room had been visited by a leprechaun. People, he was terrified that the leprechaun was there! I felt AWFUL. I finally calmed him down and he was able to enjoy himself! Seriously, don’t show kids scary movies. That’s the Kindergarten Smorgasboard tip of the day.
Speaking of a leprechaun’s visit…check out what he did to our room! (People, do you know how difficult it is for me to make a mess like this?! Shew…) The monsters FLIPPED out when they came in. (Story time: Right as the “leprechaun” (um, I’m about the size of a leprechaun…so it works… was painting the footprints, we had a lockdown. As I checked the hall, one of monsters was strolling down the hall because school starts at 10:15…so there we are locked in the classroom…I had to bribe her to not tell the secret…) They were hilarious. Running around, screaming, trying to follow the footprints. It was priceless!
