Class Reflection #7

My last day of class at Edmonds Elementary was totally bitersweet. I was so glad to be done and moving on but I also will miss the second graders tremendously. I got really annoyed by my teacher because she focused on all of the negativities in the classroom so much. She was very nice to me but I am excited to be done with her. I fell in love with the kids though. They all tackled me with hugs when i left and almost knocked me over a few times! They were so sad to see me leave and it warmed my heart. I told them that I would would go on walks in their neighborhood this summer and hopefully bump into them. They described what their bikes and helmets looked like so that I would be able to find them riding on the street... :) Too cute. I REALLY will miss those kids. I think I am officially a supporter of Bill Gates idea to have teachers stay with one group of students for a prolonged period of time. Saying goodbye is just too hard! I get too attached!
