Signing Off

Well, as LeAlan and Lloyd would say "This is [Ms. Hughes], signing off." I am so proud of the work you guys did this summer. I will be honest and say that this was one of my favorite experiences teaching. This is for two reasons: First, the content and subject matter was so different than what I teach during the school year. Second, while all of you are very different scholars with very different likes and dislikes, you were all enthusiastic and willing, as Lupe put it, to do "silly" things and to engage with some material that might have been unfamiliar to you. As I said, you made my job really easy the last three weeks and really fun! I am excited to start the school year with some new ideas for activities. More importantly though, remembering how much fun you can have in a classroom (even if you're in it for 4 hours)!

Thanks, guys.
