So today I am teaching the 6th grade orientation and I have to tell you, I'm not happy about it. Every year my school does a week long summer orientation. The sixth grade teacher has to do it and the otehr teachers rotate and it was my turn this year and I am not a happy person about it. I want to be home watching the French Open (although noone i like is left) and sitting by my sister's new pool, reading a new book, anything but being here. Oh well. They are testing today so it's not bad, and the little sixth graders are so wide eyed and scared. It's cute. The juniors and seniors I normall deal with look like they are doing you a favor by showing up for school. :) anyway, I just have other things to do besides this.
On the other hand, i did jsut finish a wonderful book, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (or the other way around) it was fantastic. I let me son read it who is 14 anad he can't put it down. I love that I have readers. My daughter jsut finished Are You There God? It's Me Margaret (one of the classics) and is now reading Blubber. Oh the joys of summer, my children reading. Oh and me too.
