And TNTP's Verdict is In....

Just got the news about whether or not I passed TNTP's strenuous (aka ridiculously crazy, time-consuming and  unnecessarily stressful) Teaching Fellows program...




Content Area proficiency?  Check.     Instruction proficienty?  Check.     Assessment proficiency?  Check.







And finally, me - now that I don't have to worry anymore about   
Summer Institute,
Seminar sessions every other week,
crazy, long, unclear work products, deadlines and resubmits,
AND NO MORE FREAKIN' PORTFOLIO!!!!!!!!!




OH, BLESS GOD!!!

Picture Story

They say a picture's worth a thousand words. Let's see how well these can sum up my day today. ;)



Teachers and administrators blew bubbles at the kids to signal the end of school and the beginning of rest, fun and relaxation...






Lots of hugs and see-ya-later's abounded...


Bubbles and cheers, cheers and bubbles...



Yep... this pretty much sums it up, doesn't it??  :)

And after just one more teacher workday.......





...all the teachers smile and say... Ohhhhhhh, yeah!!!!
