My last month in Spain

A perfect example of a productive classroom... someone lying on the floor, somebody getting dressed up, ONE child doing their work, but being attacked by colored pencils being thrown across the room... just another Wednesday morning with my 4 years olds.... :)

My roommates took me to the airport to send me off! They were fantastic roommates and I was so lucky to have found them!  It was a sad goodbye!
My Spanish Goodbye Party! 
After returning from London, I stayed really busy until I left on June 2.  I had many of my final classes with my kiddos, went on a field trip to the Plaza de España with some of my kids, had a visit from my friend Laura for my last 2 weeks, went on our own field trip to Cordoba, lots of packing, and a goodbye Spain party.  Above is a kind of whirlwind of pictures of my last moments.  All my kiddos and Spanish friends sure made me smile, and now that I have been gone 4 months, I sure do miss them!!!! I am so grateful to have had this experience
