little_dynamite: My 4th graders hooked me up today.
little_dynamite: 3rd Grader: "Are those your FANCY shoes?" Me: "Yep, this is about as fancy as I get." (Let's not talk about how my right ankle is still a tiny bit swollen from running a week ago.)
little_dynamite: I've been teaching kids how to play these things since I was in high school...and this is the FIRST time I've ever had this happen.
little_dynamite: When something your friends posted on Facebook provides you with a musical, educational and "cool enough to mesmerize 25 6th graders" way to end your class.
little_dynamite: Seriously? Two in one day?
little_dynamite: Practicing for tomorrow's outdoor dismissal duty in temperatures that will feel like NEGATIVE THREE.

little_dynamite: Five periods in a row = necessary earl grey.
little_dynamite: I love Wacky Tacky Day!
little_dynamite: Did somebody say Crazy Hat Day?
little_dynamite: 5/6 String Fest. (Be proud, CCS - one of our 6th graders is sitting first chair in his section!)
little_dynamite: I switched sections.
little_dynamite: Feeling very loved...and tempted. (Someone come help me eat all this.)
little_dynamite: Thanks, Hal Leonard. That was a fun conversation to have with some very observant fifth graders.
little_dynamite: We put the fun in Fiddler. (You guys. I apparently know NOTHING about this show and actually thought this was how his name is spelled.)
little_dynamite: These kids finally had outside recess this week and this is what they drew. So, I it snows next week...yeah.
little_dynamite: This unexpected (and very much appreciated) treat was waiting on the piano for me this morning!
little_dynamite: I think I've officially reached my productivity limit for the day.
little_dynamite: Officially the best email I've ever gotten from a parent.
little_dynamite: A former student sent in a letter for me with her younger sister, whom I still teach. You guys. It's three pages, front and back.
little_dynamite: I think my students think I'm cooler than I actually am...when in reality, I have not been rocking the side pony at work.
