After a traumatic leave from my dream job - teaching Junior High School Theatre - I returned to teaching Elementary School. It was hard. I missed my kiddos immensely. I missed my dream job, not to mention how traumatic it was to leave. After two years, I decided to accept the fact that I am an elementary school teacher by posting something positive that happened in my classroom every day. It started on Instagram and Facebook. It's now in blog form. Thanks for coming.

This week for Dia de los Muertos we were creating Tableaux of people we love who have passed away. I normally have frames so the kiddos can get creative with poses, and because on the alterar pictures are usually framed, but…I accidentally left them at my other school. UGH! So, for this class we did it without the frames.
This fourth grade class is really incredible, I look forward to teaching them every week. After each group presented their tableaux, one of the students asked if we could create one with the entire class…and the whole class chimed in with excitement that they wanted to do it.
This is what the came up with all by themselves, no help from me…I’m so proud.
