Before math today, my students got the let's-stay-focused-until-June lecture. I explained that I know they are excited for summer, but there's still a lot of work to do. This was brought on by inattention and chat, chat, chatting. Anyway, I told them that I was just as excited as they were about summer and that I know there are only 26 and a half days left of school, but let's keep working hard!. One of the girls raised her hand and said, quite shocked, "Teachers count the days until summer too?!" As I chuckled, I said that yes, we count down the days until summer. Hopefully I am not the only teacher that does that. Love my kids, but can't wait for summer!
26 days and counting...
