I will keep this short and sweet, which will be easy because we had such a delightful first day of fifth grade today. We kicked off fifth grade leadership retreat with a whole class meeting where we got to see a montage of Captain teachers and classroom pets explain their views of true leadership as well as hopes for our fifth graders this year.
We spent the rest of the day engaged in a variety of activities focused on getting to know each other, building relationships with one another, and celebrating our differences.
I'd have to say the highlight of my day was receiving feedback from our class answering the question, "What kind of teacher do you want?"
Their responses were thoughtful, sweet, and funny. I've hung them in the room so I won't forget.
I hope everyone rests up well tonight and is geared up for day 2 tomorrow!
