Today we finished our last day of school before Christmas vacation. Three glorious school-free weeks stretch before us!
Yesterday we barely had school. The entire school spent most of our morning classes practicing for our massive Christmas concert. Then, 5th grade had their Christmas party. As is becoming usual for parties, I supervized the pizza, soda, and candy distribution for my 5A class while Emily (my co-teacher) took 5B.
Then, the best part---we combined the classes for our Secret Santa! The very first person to go was Cristian (check out my earlier blog to learn more about him...). He shyly handed his present to.... ME! So adorable! The kids went crazy every time a gift exchanged between a boy and a girl--I think I even heard shouts of 'Beso! Beso!' (Kiss kiss!). Haha.

And again, today, Emily and I decided that it would be worthless to teach anything. So, once the Christmas program practice ended this morning, we did absolutely nothing! I played Simon Says, On the line Off the line, and we sang Christmas songs. Throughout the rest of the day, we had the kids color Santa Clause, do Christmas word searches and puzzles. The kids loved it, obviously, and so did I. :D
Tonight's the Christmas concert! Wish my kids luck!
