A Day in My Shoes {Linky Party}

I've been meaning to link up to this fun linky party for a week now, every time I read someone elses "Day in my shoes" I keep it "unread" as a reminder to link up. (I often read blogs on my phone via Google Reader, which makes it hard to link up)
** SIDE NOTE**
These are what I would like to wear to teach...

These are what I actually wear most days...
And these are...well...unique

This is the earliest students can come into classrooms, if they are in the building before this, they must go to daycare.

Depending on the day of the week I also have band, art, Pastor's class, or computer thrown in somewhere.  (okay, it's about 9 AM on Mon, Tue, Wed, Thurs).

Every other Friday we have specials.  During those days I teach Health all day to every grade, K-8...oh joy!

  2. WOW! You have to know a lot/prepare a lot to teach all those different content areas--not to mention Health to every grade! Makes my day look a lot easier!
