Yesterday I was asked to come in and help with Kindergarten Assessments. It was only for part of the day and I was happy to help but again sad that my time home is over. It has been a while since I have hung out with the littles and but there innocent honesty and openness turned my day around. I love what I do and being around kids is why I do it. I want to start tracking all the funny things I hear and see at school. The moments that remind me why I am a teacher. A little online Smile File for everyone to read!

At kindergarten assessments I was getting cuteness overload. So many nervous but excited little 5 year olds. One came to sit with me for assessments. We turned to the sight word portion of the assessment....
Student - "I don't know any of those words."
Me - "Well maybe you might" and I started pointing at different sight words.
Student - Looking down, "Well I do know one word.... P - O - O - P."
Me - "Oh really what does that spell?
Student - Paused a second. Looked me right in the eye again and said, "I think you know!"
