teachers reunite!

Well, the start of the new school year is fast approaching. And because we like each other so much, the teachers at my school just couldn't wait until our training week to get together. This week brought a 'book study' (aka catching up over some cervezas at the local Taco Cabana) where we (ahem) discussed the second half of the book "Reading with Meaning". The book is actually really good, and if you're a classroom teacher it offers a lot of tips and tricks for developing great readers at the primary level. Anyway, I was pretty amazed that there were like, 12 teachers that showed up to the book study fiesta. It's nice to work with such great people.
And then the party continued... Happy Birthday Tricia! Tricia was the teacher I worked with most at the beginning of last school year. She's a great girl and had a big day to celebrate... so 4 of us from school joined she and her husband... and lots of her family... for a wild night at the bowling alley. :) We had such a fun and funny time - it was a great way to begin wrapping up the wrapping up of summer.
