The Internet inexplicably stopped working at my house last week and won't be fixed until next week, so I haven't posted much. So here's a quick update before I run off to Hopkins.
Tonight is my last graduate school class! I graduate on May 21st. This is very exciting.
This week is teacher appreciation week. This means that students fill out "certificates of appreciation" and give them to teachers. My favorite "Thanks you for..." notes include:
Thank you for . . .
"Being the best AP Statistics teacher ever. You taught me so many great lessons, plus you restored my faith in all white people." HA!
"Never quitting like Mr. ___ did and always inspiring us with [SmallestTwinelicious] and your incredible swagger . . . its contagious. LOL."
"Trying to be funny and teaching us the value of math!" (I love the "trying" to be funny)
And, get ready for the tears:
"Just being yourself when you teach me. You show me that you really care about me going to college. You are by far the best teacher that I have ever had."
Needless to say, I feel appreciated.
