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.

September 7, 2023
The scene: 22 first graders at the beginning of class getting settled on their stars.
“Dammit! Would you STOP touching me?”
I’m pretty certain the kiddo who they were speaking to and I were the only ones who heard. I made eye-contact and gave them a look, and asked kiddo 2 to choose a different star.
Apparently this is an ongoing issue with these two.
Even though there was TONS of movement in class today, kiddo 2 did not get in kiddo 1’s space the rest of class.
Kiddo 2 got the clue.
Sometimes all it takes is a firm DAMMIT!
