What Time Is It?

SUMMERTIME! Today was the last day of school for my students and I am one happy girl right now. We have two post-planning days next week for teachers, but I could care less about having to go to work on those days because I don't have to deal with kids. Therefore, I am officially on summer break starting now. The last day of school is such a pointless day, but I absolutely love it. The only thing that could possibly make it better would be some big, dramatic finish to the school year.


It is no secret that I have always wished that my life was in the form of a musical. Sometimes things happen and I think to myself, "now this would be a great opportunity to break out into song and dance". However, life is not a musical; thus, I am always just a little disappointed in life's big moments because I would really love the opportunity for a group musical number. Today, we had early dismissal for students and as the clock made its way closer to 12:50, we sat in my classroom waiting for that last bell. When the bell rang, all the kids cheered and ran out to their buses. That would have been the perfect opportunity for a musical number. Every movie involving the last day of school always has some grand exit from the school building, and oh how I would love to exit my classroom dancing on the last day of school.

Since I did not get my grand musical number on the last day of school this year, I will have to keep dreaming...and when it does happen, I imagine it will go a little something like this :)


Yes, I did just post a video from High School Musical on my blog. Go ahead and judge. Sometimes being surrounded by 12 year olds all day sort of makes me act like a 12 year old :)

Have a great summer!

It would be so cool to see your door open and all of your beloved students parading down the hall and out the door in top performance mode! Awesome!
