Much appreciated

The first six weeks of school has officially come and gone! Boy, it went by quickly. This has already been an interesting year for a lot of reasons, but I feel like today was a much needed turning point.

I had a meeting this afternoon at my sister's school so when I was done "meeting" I headed down to her room to see how things were going for her. I hadn't visited her classroom since about a week before school started so there was lots of stuff I hadn't had a chance to see. Let me just say this, she has a gift. It was so refreshing to sit in her classroom and be so inspired by all of her great ideas. As if just sharing her ideas was not enough (I left with a whole page full-front and back), she went through the trouble of making me a bunch of stuff to use in my classroom right there while I waited!!

She actually went to school to be a teacher so she totally knows what she is doing and she is really great at it! I'm so proud of her and can't wait to see how the rest of her year turns out! So, thanks Ashleigh for all your inspiration, it was much appreciated!
