W^2 or W squared for Wordless Wednesday, May 31, 2023
It’s been, too long since I’ve published a post, but there have been many I’ve done in my mind. Things just get in the way of writing and posting.
Speaking of which, there are two school days remaining in this school year and I harken back to a school year gone awry and the birth of Making the Days Count dot org, at first a dot com. That was thirteen years ago; this post is the first of year fourteen.
I spent the evening marking papers, then realized I needed to run a quick errand and walked outside to discover the moon and the flag.
A lot has taken place since that first post thirteen years ago, but theirs is more to tell in the years ahead, just like the flag and moon. There’s more left and beginning Monday at noon, there are 76 days to practice for the time when I won’t be teaching.
Today was a great day, I think I got 140 sixth graders to think about energy transfer when they really wanted to think about summer break and sleeping in. Tomorrow we are on a walking field trip to a local park and Friday will be here and gone before I know it and I’ll be outside waving to school buses as the leave the parking lot one last time.
I’ve got a little formatting to do and then I’ll press publish and this will go live. The day is done, and I am headed to bed to catch some rest before it starts all over anew. Making the days Count, one day at a time, it’s all in a cycle.
What are your plans this summer?
Enjoy your summer break!! School will be starting before you know it.

Thank you! Today is day 1 of 76. School finished with kids on Friday and yesterday with official show up day to clean room and check out for the summer. I am moving rooms this year and going in Thursday to finish moving rooms and coordinate with the current occupant – we are switching rooms. It will give me the opportunity to pitch things I am holding on to for no reason. Going to make every day count.
Congratulations on another great school year (almost) under your belt.
Thank you. It’s day 1 of 76. Plan to make every day count and it begins today!
Summer? Summer? It’s still too cold for summer, and the children still have seven weeks of school. But all good – regular routines still in charge. Enjoy your break!
Thank you. Walking field trip today to celebrate the good in the year. Stay well. Peace.
