Today was a test day and…it was snowing. This means chaos in kid land. The school was abuzz with early release rumors which turned out to be true. Julie shut the blinds and refused to let the kids talk about it. And here is a big difference between us. I wanted to open the blinds, embrace the snow, and make the kids write a paragraph from the snowflake’s POV as he floats down on a scene from one of their historical fiction books (POV is what we have been working on all week). I wanted to embrace the excitement. Because there is a part of me that is still a middle schooler who is all worked up over snow.
The kids got out after lunch which means 6/7, which is behind the other classes to begin with, is now even further behind. Ugh.
