Friday

Yesterday was my last day at LES. I didn't want to get up yesterday because I didn't want to have to say goodbye to my nineteen second graders and Mrs. O. I had such an amazing time. I learned so much; I grew as an educator and a person; I built relationships in the short nine weeks. I kept myself pretty composed except when I was thanking my students for the wonderful good bye gifts and when I came back to the classroom and I just watched them all for a couple of minutes. Sometimes you don't know the impact you've made until it's time for you to leave. That is what sunk into me yesterday or else people are very kind in how they say good bye and wish me luck.

Here are some pictures of what I received as my good bye gifts. I received a book from my second grade class, but I can't post it since it has my student's picture on it. Don't I have just the sweetest second graders?
