In the first few days of September, I never thought I'd see this day. I am officially on Christmas break and somehow, I survived four months with my 6/7s. Some days have flown by, others have felt like an eternity. Some days, I've sat at home crying, beating myself up over taking on this change and other days, I'm grateful for the challenge. But not one single day has been easy. We had countless conversations about bullying, gossiping and friendships. My brain is fried, my body tired. I wonder how we managed to fit in anything else! Here I was completely worried about learning the curriculum when I should've been more concerned about how to be a teenager! It definitely is a new world to me. Let's hope the New Year will bring on some peace & calm in my classroom!
The next two weeks will be filled with sleep, CrossFit, shopping and relaxing. Somewhere in there, there is some marking to do but I'll be damned if I go back to school fried and unrested.
Happy Holidays! Eat lots, drink more & be merry!!
