Smartie Pants =D

It's DT day over at 

Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons

I teach middle school math and science. We started our CST testing this week. Each day I'm creating little motivational gifts for my students =D

Considering that I have over 50 students... this task is taking much longer than I had anticipated. But when my students saw their gifts, I was taken aback by how much they appreciated it. One student got teary eyed as he read my message and the rest of them were extremely grateful.

One student said he didn't really need my gift because I tell him nearly everyday just how smart he is and how much I believe in him. I feel so blessed to teach these kids =D
