Workin' on the Weekend

This morning, I headed into the Teacher Resource Center for a little Saturday overtime work. Just an hour and a half or so of diecutting, printing, laminating...

You know, a few sight words...

New nametags for September...

Number cards for a center next week...

Pages for a class book on rules...

Number mats for another math center next week...

And a little border never hurts either...
And, the place was packed. Every table had at least two teachers working at it, and I had to wait in line for the 4" number die cuts and the laminator. This was on a Saturday morning, when no one had to be there. No one was getting paid, or even earning kudos from the boss, because no one in administration will ever know we were there. Hmmm... Those who can, do - Those who can't, teach? Yeah, right.

Now, off to watch some Tivo'ed Project Runway... while Saunders and I cut out laminated stuff. :)

LOL. Katie! You know that saying is true of some..the ones that view teaching as a "job". The great teachers know that teaching is a calling...a talent.. and a true gift! The great teachers are a blessing to all they teach!!! And it sure sounds like you are one of the great ones!
