End of Summer

Well summer is almost officially over. The kids have to go back to school a week from Monday. Teachers get to go back tomorrow. I thought I would post a little of what we did this summer.
1. Tyler and Katie were able to go on a pioneer trek from Williams to Flagstaff. They both had a good time and learned a little what our forefathers had to do for us.
2. Noelle logged in almost 40 hours of reading for the summer reading program at the library.
3. Jason officially opened the Fallis Vocal Studio and now has 5 students.
4. I enjoyed my kids, read some good books, and relaxed. All good things a teacher should do over the summer.
I am excited because I get to have my own classroom. In years past I have always taught in the library. I have my room decorated in red, white, and blue. I think we need to become as Americans more patriotic. That does not mean I agree with President Obama because that is the farthest thing from the truth. I think a little patriotism would go along way.
