Klove, Casey, and Coffee!

Just wanted to extend my apologies to the blogger world for being M.I.A. My oh my have my days been crazy busy, but I wouldn't have it any other way- I'm doing what I love!

With that said, I couldn't do it without the inspiration and motivation I receive from my loved ones. For example, I've already received my daily dose of KLove Radio, Casey, and coffee this morning- the three things that get me through each and every day.  She got placed at Kellogg Elementary for our level II clinical (lucky girl, absolutely love the school- GO TIGERS!).  It just so happens that I live about 3 blocks away, so we have started a morning ritual where she stops by for coffee and of course, teacher talk! I don't believe there's a better way to start off my day.

For my level II clinical I got placed at Ceredo Elementary which is only 5 minutes from my house- WOOO! I will admit, it's so convenient and those extra ten minutes of sleep I receive each night is just oh so wonderful! It's only week two and I feel like I've known these kids (and Mrs. H) for so long. I've never learned students' names so fast. Maybe it's because every single morning since day 1, I walk in the classroom and all I hear is "What's my name, What's my name, What's my name?" I'm thankful they stayed on me as much as they did, because dag on it....I knew all of their names by day 4! 

I'm teaching my unit in about three weeks! I'm already doing some small groups with the kids, and I have a couple of cute activities up my sleeve for these kiddos. I'll try to post pictures soon! For now...I"m off to school!

Have a great day friends!
