Great Day

Hi,
What a wonderful day I had as a teacher.  Here is why:
1. The students were engaged.  Two activities made this happen.  We had the library mascot and a member of the district visit our classroom read Dr.Seuss to promote literacy and encourage reading.  In the afternoon we had an outing to a local unique landmark/eatery.  These experiences were novel and exciting for my students with disabilities.
2. The staff had fun, seemed proud of their work, and I had fun relating with them.  Bad attitudes are contagious, but so are positive attitudes.  Today people were feeling pretty darn positive.
3. I am proud of the growth I have seen in both students and staff. I believe our staff team has made that happen.  That makes me happy.
4.  I feel more comfortable in my role as teacher and as an advocate for my students.  I believe I can make a difference.
Today I am proud of my career.
Take care, have a wonderful weekend.
