As I trotted down the hall today with my arms full of teaching materials, I heard a squeaky voice shout from afar, "Miss Mimi! Miss Mimi, I wanna show you my t-shirt!" Turning around, I watched a freckle-faced kindergartner with a new haircut hustle my way. Putting his hands on his hips and thrusting out his tummy to better show off his shirt, he stood still for me to read the following: "Let's Trade. You give me $100 (arrow pointing to a hundred dollar bill) and I give you PEACE AND QUIET! " I giggled, especially since this little boy is exuberant but quite well behaved, and he turned around and skipped on down to the library. Primary school hallways can be such fun!
This is mostly a blog of everyday stories from my work as a primary school counselor. Some are funny, some are touching, but they all stand out as memorable moments. Sometimes I'll include photos, ideas that are working for me, and meaningful quotes. Enjoy!
