The Little Things Matter


This week has been AMAZING! Today, I found myself enjoying my class even more because they were able to get to know each other more. Everyday, we have completed a short get to know you activity. Today, the students were given sticky notes and had to write one thing about themselves that no one else in the classroom knew. I was quite surprised to know that one of my students has driven a boat, another has an extra bone, and one has a birthmark in the shape of a high-heal shoe on her foot. Even though to some these may not seem like intriguing facts, I found myself enjoying these little things that they were so apprehensively proud of showing or telling.

And just in case you are wondering, I have eaten bugs.

  1. EEEEWWWW... ok, your "bug" video brought us great laughs this weekend as Amelia had to show it to all the family.. I guess it's pretty cool to be able to say your teacher has eaten bugs!!!

  2. Maybe, I should put a disclaimer that says, "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!"
