Some Thoughts

Here are some of the reasons I love teaching first grade:

1. When my students tell me they need to tell me something important, it is almost always "I love you, Ms. Pense"
2. Going to centers is the coolest thing
3. They listen with rapt attention to every story I read.
4. Seeing the "ah ha!" when they figure something out on their own for the first time.
5. I always get invited to birthday parties.

I just love my class this year. They are a pretty funny group of kids.

Well, it is day three of south beach phase 1...so far, I am doing ok. Yesterday evening was a little rocky; as a I was jonesing for some sugar, but I just went to bed. If I get some yogurt, I think that will help my sugar craving. Last night for dinner was a chicken breast, broccoli and cauliflower and spinach. Who knows what I'll eat tonight for dinner.

I will leave you with this closing thought....the contraction for the words it will is it'll...who uses that kind of language. Say it in a sentence to yourself today...you are sure to laugh.
