As a Teacher...

- i am such a stickler about homework! one night, in order to avoid my detention for not reading, Carlos forced himself to read the only book he had at home... the Bible. he then wrote me a beautiful summary about how God created the earth in 7 days.


- i have successfully convinced my students that a paper hat from Krispy Kreme Doughnuts is the ultimate reward to be worn with pride





- i expect precision when it comes to walking in a line. yes, i am the line drill sargent! the rest of the school is now competing to beat my class at 'best line'.



- i buy candy for my students, which is mostly consumed by me behind my desk.








- i've been questioned by the librarian as to why my class is obsessed with checking out all the French dictionaries.

















- i have so much fun with my kids! Luis recently raised his hand to tell me,
"Miss Newlin, you have a very loud laugh!!"

I am LOVING these pics! It makes me so happy to see you teaching, and teaching with a smile on your face I might add. :) Sometimes, it's hard to do both. :) I LOVE YOU!!

Love the pictures. Miss Linds and I were sitting in her classroom last week eating apple pie and talking about how great it is that you are teaching.
