Three year olds...
Excitement, interest, curiosity, joy and innocence is written across their faces when ever they look at me or approach a situation. Longing for learning and seeking the wealth of knowledge that you have. A Teacher's job can be very fulfilling. Some teachers don't enjoy their job but I truly do everyday...even those not so fun days. Yes, I come home absolutely beat! But at the end of the day, I have given those babies, my children all that I could and that fulfills me!
October fun
October is one of my favorite times of year. There are lots of changes going on with the weather, the appearances outside and the sense of harvest and halloween in the air. Now, I do not celebrate halloween and each year I attempt to explain this to children and adults alike and they just don't understand. I am always tempted to give in and just dress up. Today we were talking about what everyone would be for halloween. Of course there are butterflies, princesses, spidermen, peter pans and I said that I would be dressed up as Ms. Tomika! My friends thought that this was funny. But very innocently began talking about what I could be dressed up as (very cute). A candy, a juice box, a queen and this conversation lasted for minutes amongst themselves. I thought it was very cute.
But this is one of my favorite times of year because a introduce the "Spooky" stories. There are very child friendly spooky stories that I enjoy reading or listening too. One of the chilfrens favorite seems to always be the book "What was I scared of" by Dr. Seuss which the infamous pale green pants star in. Another book is "The little old lady who wasn't affraid of anything" by ........
But reading these spooky stories I love watching their faces as the sespence thickens. But please understand that all of these books have wonderful friendship endings and they end up not being scary endings at all. Again, I love the innocence on their faces as they are scared then happy at the end. It is priceless.
This is just one of my joys of teaching young children!
