So as a way of procrastinating, and also seeing if I'm the only one, I thought I'd blog today about the things I wish for! I'd love it if you would link up and tell me what your "Sometimes I wish..." moments are!
Grab the button and link on up.
So here are my "Sometimes I wish..." for today.
1. Sometimes I wish... that the time between the kids leaving, and me packing up for the day would last longer. I got into the habit of doing all my work at school in my first two years. I had more than enough non-contact time as a beginning teacher to get absolutely everything done! (The joys of working at a highschool as an intermediate teacher!!). As the last 5 years since have panned out, I've had more responsibilities, and far more creative ideas that I just can't get everything done.
2. Sometimes I wish... that I had the ability to teleport. Okay so this one is a bit weird, but seriously, my classroom is on the other side of the school from the office, and there is NO cover! When it rains, I get wet. It's not that I'm being lazy or anything, but it would be nice to stay dry going to get a cuppa at morning tea.
3. Sometimes I wish... that the school day was longer. Okay, so I'm probably the ONLY one who will ever say this, but with only 4.5 hours of actual class time a day, minus admin and other interruptions, I don't think I ever have enough time with my kids. Like I said, no one is going to agree with me though.
I'm sure there are others, but I might save them for another time.
What do you wish???
