“ This is a picture of me and Miss McIntyre. The blue is water and the brown is a boat. Miss McIntyre’s head is a heart. Why? Because Miss McIntyre is nice.
One of the many cards I got from my 21 kindergarten students on my last day of student teaching. (via emac)
Aw, your kids are so sweet! Students write the best cards when you leave. Keeping them in your desk and reading them later down the road will help you when you’re having a rough day. Now, things were a bit different for me at the Alternative School. For instance, this was my motivation:
Dear Teacher,
I hope you come back, because we are worse without you. Keyon and Stevan are messing with each other, smacking each other with knives, glass cups and wooden chairs. It’s become a war zone between the Blacks and Whites so please, in the name of all that’s pizza, come back. Please I beg of you, come back.
