Spring Break

Conferences went well and spring break was on its way. It was so nice to be done with school for a little while. There are times when you just need to recoup and re-energize. For my relaxing get-away, I traveled to Sin City. The picture is one I took when we were in Old Las Vegas. This is the cowboy you see on most movies. I'm not going to lie, it was pretty cool to be down there and experience Las Vegas. There is too much to do and see in three days. I will definately be going back down there in the future.

Regardless of my vacation though, coming back to teaching was nice after the break. My students also got vacations and most of them seemed pretty tired the Monday we came back. I was exhausted, but I think I still had a little bit of jet lag.

The week has progressed slower than I would like, but in two days, I am done with the classroom portion. Next week is for observations only and then next Friday... I'm finished! It seems I just started and I finally feel comfortable with the kids and in the classroom. I'm finally finding my style and my niche, but like all things, this must come to an end. It's been a whirlwind of emotions and experiences and I know I will never get sick of being in the classroom. Like the paradoxes we are learning about; the more knowledge I gain, the less I realize I know.
