I like big teaching and I cannot lie, you other teachas can't deny, when the kids walk in with all the haste and a smile on their face you get pumped!;) she/her

There are 21 years between my youngest and my stepsons. I am still sorta hoping for one more...

Weeks 7-8: Full blown anxiety kicks in and is paired with stages of grief. Denial holds strong for most of week 7 and acceptance tends to come week 8 when I break down and go in early to setup my classroom.

Week 9 (workdays): A literal whirlwind that doesn't slow until our first snow days.

Second Day Out: New normal established and "off" fades ti "on".

Weeks 1.3- 4: It's like a Snoop Dogg and Lil Duval song, I am livin' my best life and not going to work tomorrow. This the emotional peak of summer.

Week 5-6: Slight anxiety kicks in at the realization summer is at the halfway+ mark.

End of Year Teacher Workdays: Ehhh, they all run together. Box checking.

Last Teacher Workday: CRASH. OUT. I leave school dancing and arrive home crying.

First Day Out: Not talking Tee Grizzley here...literal day 1 and feeling off. This is the summer "low". Don't worry, it doesn't last long...

That is WILD. I've only ever had one or two a year, max. I have the kids keep it in their backpack for "homework". Also we don't have homework.;)
