Last week of June

I began teaching summer school again... This is my 5th year teaching, and I was able to teach Algebra 2 again... which was nice because the prep was not so time consuming... yet that decreases my interest level. Thankfully I had three special girls in the 10:30 class that made the teaching worthwhile. I like teaching summer school, the program is designed as enrichment for students who are above grade level. It is a great challenge to teach such intelligent students, and the experience continues to help me improve my teaching skills.

This year I only committed to three weeks, which was convenient due to unexpected events that I will share with you... or with those of you who do not already know... in the next couple of days.

Meanwhile, I shared in the June 30th post of my nice relaxing day off... well... I have yet to experience a relaxing day since!! I am so glad I shared that experience... it seems like a distant memory!!!

Where I have been....

Ok, so... I owe all you loyal readers an explanation.... I have such special news to share with you all... but I want to be disciplined and tell you of my last five weeks in order. So... Here it goes...

(of course, if you don't check this daily, the surprise is not much of a surprise... yet still special and wonderful!!!)

ps. don't jump to conclusions... it may not be what you think.... =) =)
