Kindergarten

My friend Letty is out of town this week and Monday so I am taking over her kindergarten class. I just love this group of kids. The last time I was there they were a little crazy but today everything went really smoothly. There are only a couple rascals in my class that enjoy making me slightly loco, but I can pretty much handle the craziness.

I never thought I would say it, but I love love love kindergarten now, especially when I teach it for Kari or Letty. The kids are great and I love that I know the routine.

The students are practicing for their Christmas performance and listening to them sing the songs is pretty hilarious. I know I am supposed to help them learn the words, but I'm pretty sure they know them better than I do. Today the kids were practicing Feliz Navidad and they were looking at me like I knew the words. I seriously make up random noises when I sing that song because I have no idea what is being said. SO, if the kids end up singing the wrong words during their performance, I sincerely apologize.

Today I set up an appointment to meet with a surgeon to get my wisdom teeth removed. I have been putting this off for years, so I guess the time is now. I scheduled to get them taken out on January 2nd, so hopefully I'm hoping Ill be recovered by the time I start my long term the week after. I am cutting it close, but that is the earliest time they had. Yikes.

Quotes of the Day:

1. (Students were cutting out green trees for Christmas and a kid's hand was shaking without him realizing it)
Student: Oh my gosh MISS HOBBS LOOK- My tree is shaking!

2.)(At the end of the day there were two students waiting to be picked up by their parents)
Me: Well, I guess the three of us are just going to have to have a sleepover.
Student 1: No, we can't I snore too loud.
Student 2: Yeah, plus when I get home I need to take a POOP!
