And the whole class said, "No!"
The teacher kept on going with the lecture...
I couldn't get a good picture of William today, so sorry guys. But, this was the entertainment for the day in class. Then, my dreams came true, and we got separated into two groups. My group did not include Billy but DID include Allison--the one I got separated from a couple weeks ago. Hallelujiah!
I'm annoyed that my high school has enough money to hire a new principal (that makes 6 for 1800 kids), but "not enough resources" to replace a math teacher that quit and a science teacher that quit. That means that I will have 30+ kids in each of my classes. Fun times.
my teenagers!
I know, it's weird. I love them though! I love talking to them.
I'm so glad for the summer because I don't have to get anything ready, wear uncomfortable shoes, deal with crazy parents or crazy administrators. But, I did realize what I am going to miss the absolute most this summer--
Who's gonna talk with me about all my stupid teenager shows? Paris Hilton's BFF? The Gossip Girl finale? Being giddy about NYC Prep after seeing that preview show? Ah!
Thank goodness I have Nicole for Bachelorette.
To my favorite kids from Manor High School, who have just found this blog. How did they do it? Why were they googling me 3 years after the fact?
Baw-head!
Liesel and Elora getting candy at Grandpa Jensen's house.
Nathaniel jumping.
Nate's so handsome!
Stella's still not sure if she likes TJay.
Liesel and Grandpa Jensen making s'mores.
It snowed the last couple days everyone was in Utah, and Nate made a snowman in the backyard.
I did school work and went to the new JoAnn's too many times to count while TJay was gone.
This past week also I got picked by one of my students to be his faculty friend at a baseball game.
I need a goal with my sewing and general craftiness, so I'm doing this too!
So, here's how this game works-the first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive, at some point during the year, a handmade gift from me (I can customize if you like). What it will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise, unless you have something in mind)! The catch is that you must participate as well. Before you leave your comment, write up a pay it forward post on your blog to keep the fun going (or be lazy and copy and paste like I did). Then come back, let me know you're going to play and sit back and anticipate the arrival of your gift.
Only 10 more weeks of school!!
So, I have this kid at school, and we'll call him J.
J is in football, he is in powerlifting, he has long, unkempt hair.
J came into class today, and the first thing he said to me was,
"Oh my gosh, Mrs. Jensen, did you SEE after the final rose? Can you believe he did that? Good call on DeAnna, though. We were right about her."
Moments like this make my job so worthwhile.
