My school starts in 24 days!Actually - I have been merrily shopping back to school sales, picking up gluesticks at Walmart, colored pencils at Target, folders at Officemax and crayons at Office Depot. Waiting breathlessly for the Sunday ads - will this be the week that pencil boxes go on sale? I love the going back to school mode - just hate the going back to work one.
However - I found a list of my new students online. I have been saying their names aloud, trying to get my tongue used to Shawn'Teena and Cameron, hoping I will like them (and they will like me). I wonder if they are watching the days of summer speed by and both dreading the start of school and also being so excited they already can't get to sleep. They are probably also scouting out school supplies at Walmart, finding Dora, Strawberry Shortcake and Transformers on their backpacks the same way I am scouting out the aisles of my favorite teacher store. I hope we can all enjoy the heck out of the lazy days of summer - we will meet soon enough.
