Here are twelve school related things I am grateful for (besides my 12 wonderful students!):
- Our fantastic, hard working and caring paraprofessionals – especially Mrs. Howard. I love having her in the classroom with me.
- Our new P.E. teacher Ms. Brett and our new STEM teacher Ms. Cahill who always put the kids first.
- The school suppling crayons to us this year and not having to put them on the supply list!
- A clean classroom that’s toasty in the winter! Thanks Mr. Ted and Mr. James
- Seeing my students from past and present each day all around the school.
- Knitting and Finger knitting – It’s nice to have a warm scarf and hat for door duty in winter months that I made! (And we are making progress in our finger knitting skills!)
- Kindergartners who like to sing, play and be imaginative.
- The ability to learn new things and use them in my daily teaching practice. (Have you tried Rose, Bud, Thorn at home yet?)
- Mrs. Peever, my next door classroom neighbor and supportive colleague.
- The office staff and lunchroom staff – Ms. April, Mrs. Katso, Mrs. Shena – they all make the school day run smoothly.
- All those new and beautiful library books for the picking!!! We are so lucky!
- The Johnson School community for continuing to be open to new ideas and practices and being supportive of our students.
Have a great Thanksgiving break with your family and friends!
Sincerely,
Ms. Purdin
