TENDER AGE

I think that sometimes an outfit can put you in the best of moods. This one did it for me yesterday. Tyedye, leopard print, and a new wolfpack shirt from Roots, all together.

THE MORE WE GET TOGETHER

It's been one heck of a start to my new school year. My students are nothing like the ones I had last year, not to say that's a bad thing, but it's just completely different. I was so excited to be able to teach the same stuff as the year before, only to find that my new class works in totally opposite ways, so I've had to rearrange all my lessons accordingly. But, there is one thing that I am happy to change up. Art projects have always been my forte, and whatever student dynamic I'm given, I'll conjure up some creative assignment to fit the bill. Over two days my students painted, cut out, glued on, and assembled monsters from their own imaginations terrorizing a city. We also made silly pumpkin faces, that signify my class appropriately.

SEE THE WORLD IN GREEN

Green pants for Meet The Teacher night! Felt appropriate somehow. It's quite the time having all of your students and their families in the class.. But above all the noise, I managed to hear, "Look at all those spiders". !!! Excuse me while I hide my mini-heartattack. Apparently little spiders had taken over a leaf from a flower in my teacher-desk-bouquet. Prompty chopped it off and threw that out the window. Might need to reconsider plants in the classroom..
