It's That Time of Year

Reports are done, and soon to be delivered. The few activities that remain are things like: Play-day, Totem Pole re-dedication, and some special printing, drawing and math activities. This week is also a theme-day week, with Hat Day on Monday, Sports Jersey Day on Tuesday and a couple of others.

The final week of school is always a special week for teachers and students, because a year of work, learning and personal interaction has now passed. What remains is a collection of many classroom memories, and a set of learning skills that have grown and are ready to be carried into the next year of study, and on into life.

I have been glad to work with each of my students this year. It has been a privilege to know them and to have a part in their growth and development.
