Welcome Back! The summer is over, school has started up again, and with it, material for my blog!
An update on my job position: I am now officially working! I was hired in May at the school I had been subbing in before. So now I am the lead kindergarten assistant and I couldn't be happier!
Before school started this fall, we had an open house to greet all the families and give the children a chance to meet us (their teachers) and the other children in the class while their parents were there to provide extra support. During the open house we played outside, had a little story in our classroom, and then went back outside with popsicles!
As the children were leaving, one four-year-old boy came up to me and said, "excuse me, Miss Rachel. Are you going to be my teacher every day?" And I replied yes. Then he said, "can I give you a hug?" And I said "absolutely!!!" Then he sweetly said, "ok. I love you! I'll see you next week!"
And that is why I love what I do!

Congratulations on your new position! I'm very happy for you. The school is fortunate to have you teaching these children.
Do you miss using French? (Or maybe you have found ways to keep it in your life anyway?)
I do miss using my French! The lead teacher I work with and I have been talking about the possibility of me bringing French into our classroom though, which would be so wonderful! It would just be little games and songs with movement, but it would be fun!
Otherwise, I keep in my life in little ways (music, movies,a few friends), but I haven't used it consistently for a few years now. :-(
