JOY
Today was the perfect day to build a snowman with my class! The snow was fluffy and perfect packing snow! We got a cowboy hat from the dress-up closet and we used radishes for the eyes! I absolutely love my class at the early childhood center in the Jewish Community Center! They bring me sooo much joy everyday! Children keep life so simple and they make me laugh at the stupidest things! Happy Hanukkah this week! We have been busy all week making latkes, lighting our menorah, and playing the dreidel game! Life is good!

The cutest Ralphs twins ever!
Everyday I make sure I get to see my little buddies! They are the funniest little kids, so full of energy. I don't think they ever walk they seem to prance around the room like little monkeys! I love making them smile, laugh, or giggle!

A day in the life of a pre-school teacher Tess
Brace yourself, drink your morning rockstar cuz you are in the toddler B room for the next five hours. (14 kids age 2 turning 3 this coming year!) So, the morning starts out smoothly I arrive at...
7:30 am to assist the early risers. Then I find out that my co-teacher is not going to be in the classroom with me today and I have an incompetent sub that doesn't do toddlers. That means I'll be changing all the diapers and that I will have to be the head referee today.
8:30 am and school has started with the twins aka tornados arriving running into the classroom at full speed to wash their hands. If I turn my back for a few seconds there is water all over the place, a mini flood in the classroom.
9:00 am the director of the pre-school informs me that we will have a fire drill in ten minutes so it will scare the children so be ready. Quickly I told the class to get their jackets/sweatshirts on to go outside. This is a complicated process with fourteen little two year olds, who can't do zippers.
9:10 am One boy starts crying scared of transitioning to another place besides the classroom during the fire drill. Getting the entire class down a flight of stairs is quite a process to say the least!
9:30 Clean up time
9:45 Snack time
10:00 Circle time/ Story time
10:30 Center exploration
11:00 One of the kids bites the other kid
11:30 One of the kids throws up his lunch all over the place
12:00 change four poopy diapers borderline loose stools
12:15 drink a diet pepsi
12:30 nap time feeewwww!
