As a result, I have been blessed by them too!
I don't think there has been a day go by when I haven't seen at least one of my students' parents.
They may have been walking their child into class,
picking them up from school,
subbing for a sick teacher,
volunteering in the lunch room,
or bringing me supplies for my classroom!
I have received construction paper, pencils, erasers, mini white boards, even sets of books from parents who want to help out in the classroom.
I have parents who are willing to plan and carry out parties for our end of the month celebrations!
When I asked if anyone would like to be a class mom for the year, I have 4 moms volunteer.
My class is going on a field trip in a couple of weeks and it is crucial to have chaperones for it. During my student teaching, we had trouble getting parents to participate in field trips. For this field trip, I had 12 parents volunteer to go with us. I only have 14 kids!
It is awesome to witness first hand how willing these parents are to make sacrifices so their children can learn and be successful.
