Well, I can officially say that I survived the craziness of last week with the principal and school psychologist being out of the building for multiple days! This week we have everyone in the office, but it might get a little wild- it's Homecoming Week! Our 5th grade student council decided to have 'Spirit Week' instead of just one theme day. Today is Mix-Match Monday, and I certainly went all out! For some reason it is so much easier to dress myself when I don't have to worry about my outfit matching...
I really like to participate in Theme Days as a school counselor. I feel like it really gets the kids excited and increases participation. However, I can understand other viewpoints, such as kids feeling bad when the don't/can't participate. We tried to make it as simple and doable as possible! Tomorrow is Twin Day and I wasn't going to participate, but I think one of my favorite EAs (educational assistant) is going to be my 'Brewer' twin. Yay! I think I'm most looking forward to Wednesday, though. I'm really going to enjoy my sweatpants/PJs for Wake-up Wednesday :-D.
