FOURTH GRADERS KNOW HOW TO BUILD UP ONE'S SELF ESTEEM
Today, our 5th and 6th grade science teacher announced a recycling competition that will run from now until Earth Day, next Wednesday. Whichever homeroom can recycle the most pounds of recyclable stuff wins a pizza party for the class!
Please remember that I have the Phantom Cupcake Licker amongst the hungry throngs I teach. This sort of thing is right up their alley!
During indoor recess (because it was yet again rainy and gross out), I decided to continue with OPERATION ORGANIZE THE MESS, and I had kids help me recycle a bunch of old papers I'd been hanging onto and am now purging from my file cabinets (it's at this point Carrie is thinking, "Wait a second! I made her pitch all that crap before she moved down there! WHAT THE HECK!?!?!?" Yes, Carrie, I've accumulated more. I'm sorry, did you forget who you were friends with????).
David*, one of my helpers, announces loudly, between trips to the recycling bin, "Boy Miss Murray! It's just a good thing you don't keep this place clean! We could actually win this competition."
*Names have been changed to protect those little demons that remind me everyday there isn't any such thing as perfect, least of all me!
