This year is no different.
Today, J walked into the room, raised his two fists and announced, "FREEDOM!"
"What are you free from?" I asked.
"Reading a book with my teacher. She had so many questions."
"She makes our brains work too hard," K chimed in.
Can you guess that today was the final day of classes before spring break?
Wishing a relaxing break to all who have finally arrived! For everyone else, happy weekend!
Freedom!!!
ReplyDelete...and this teacher secretly hopes he picks up something to read - FOR FUN!!
I can totally understand J's excitement. I'm looking forward to a little freedom myself, but I have another week to go. Enjoy your break!
ReplyDeleteFunny, I am thinking freedom TO READ... all day long... in my pajamas.
ReplyDeleteIf only they knew how much we look forward to the freedom, too...
ReplyDeleteI liked the twist. My "freedom" comes in exactly one week.
ReplyDeleteI totally get it. Today I took Liberty the last 20 minutes of the day to give the kids some freedom. And I gave myself some freedom. Freedom from trying to teach a riding lesson to a bunch of distracted fourth-graders. We cleaned our desks and got a bit of free time. When I said free time they were actually confused. I've never said that word before! So they clean their desks and had some freedom. We are all looking forward to a break.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like the Friday afternoon before a week off! Pure freedom!
ReplyDeleteThat's priceless. We do need those breaks, for sure. Brain shut down is a necessity of both teachers and students. Enjoy!
