On balik-tanaw mode :)

Last year for me at the preschool was a year of
extraordinary firsts.

Im here in my SpEd class, sitting and waiting for
my classmates for almost two hours now.
I was absent last Saturday because its preschool graduation day.
Im super early today kasi im excited to submit my final papers
for this module :)
umuulan sa labas. Malapit na rin maubos ang hot choco na take-out
ko kanina with pandesal...tsarap! :)
Im thinking now of my greatest moments with the kids.
While im trying to organize their photos the other day,
my heart just cant help but smile seeing them grow from cute cocoons into
fearless dinosaurs! este butterflies pala :)
hmm…
Meeting these kids led me to the path of self discovery
and a world of infinite possibilities! naks! Hahaha!
Ive listed a few. Lets see if Jason bourne can beat this :)
Fairy.princess.wondermom (sure I can fix anything.
from a broken pencil case to a broken arm! Ouch!)
teacher.bestfriend.beastfriend.storyteller.magician.
ventriloquist.director.actress.photographer.singer.
dancer.listener.chef.doctor.patient.painter.hero.villain.
cheerleader.bully.bullied.“toy engineer." detective(who hid my eraser?!!)
newscaster.Elmo.Oscar.Mulan.BenTen.kung fu panda.masterOogway.
girlscout.referee.coach.“mommywhere’smymilk-baby”
(every time they’d ask me to wear my bib and
display a childish rage of temper have always been a real
blockbuster of joy for them.
whenever i do that,they would all laugh their hearts and saliva out!!!)
whew! Their laughter is my super bonus :)

GoLdY&fRoDo

March 19.

I first brought in goldy and frodo at school for the Open House.
The kids loved it very much so I decided to just let it stay in our classroom and have it as a pet.


March 23. Gloomy day

Frodo died this afternoon.
Earl said it might have been because the kids are tapping the fishbowl or overfed. I thought Frodo had some kind of heart attack.
As I watch the lifeless fish floating, I noticed the other fish Goldy swimming around then would gently stroke cheek on Frodo’s as if kissing a dear friend goodbye. Maybe fishes when they’re heartbroken, cry too.
While all these are going on, I almost didn’t felt that one of my kids’ attention was on me pala.
Bianca caringly asked, “teacher, sad ka?”
I said “yes.”
End of day.


March 24. Beyond Alphabets and Numbers

When Bianca arrived at school today, she hurriedly got in our classroom and handed me an orange bag. Not realizing yet what’s in it, I asked her, “What’s this?”
Her excited and pretty face lighted up even more
when she answered,
“goldfish.”
