Summer 2021: What to do
We have made it through an entire year with in person teaching during a pandamic. Let that sink in for a moment. We did well. Students learned a lot and we had smaller class sizes due to some students going on virtual school. In some regards this was a good year. It was peaceful. Virtually no discipline issues with any student in my classes. No, not all had the best attitude every day. But they came to school. We talked, we laughed and we learned. As a teacher with now 34 years of teaching behind me I am satisfied that I did my best. I am now slowly shedding the mask. I went to Walmart without one (yes, fully vaccinated). I felt a bit like a rebel doing it. Most people didn't wear one either. For some reason it is hard to plan things for this summer. I don't need rest. I need some excitement in my life. I want to travel somewhere but I can't decide where to go. Initially I wanted to do a cross country car trip in the SUV, but now that seems too hard. So we are doing smaller...
