Hello friends!

I am very happy and well-rested right now because its…. SPRING BREAK! A little break from student-teaching is always nice and necessary. Here is what I did for the weekend of my first Spring Break as a teacher!

My best friend Carolina came up from New York to visit for the weekend! So of course, we had to get Thai food!
Headed to Mohegan Sun with the girls to watch an MMA fight! We all met at boxing 😀
The arena!
I was even able to stop by Holy Cross and catch up with a couple alums who were visiting for the weekend!
Last but not least, ice skating! Always grateful to have someone tie my skates

This weekend was amazing and taking a break from lesson planning was necessary. I think it is important to remember that even the best teachers have a life outside of school. Finding time for friends and family is the most important thing to remember!

Have a good break y’all!

Valentine’s Day- Teacher Edition

Feliz día de San Valentín! (Happy Valentines Day!)

Valentine’s Day has always been one of my favorite holidays! I just love the concept of letting everyone you care about know that you love them <3

Here is how I am spending my Valentine’s Day, as a teacher!

Woke up to a clean car (from the snow last night) and a little gift from my Valentine on my windshield wipers!
Beautiful view making my way into Burncoat High School!
Slow day during office duty… time to work on this blog!
Me pretending to be okay after Ms. Castillo told me she has not read my blog
Valentine’s Day tradition… get mama some flowers!

 

All in all, I could say that this Valentine’s was one for the books! I asked my students what they had planned for Valentine’s Day… majority of students said their plan was to sleep!

Whether you spent time with loved ones or slept through this special day, hope you had a good one!
