Most of them will join me! ]]> 2022-06-07 22:44:32 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214145582 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214329021 I've been teaching for 3 years at the same school. Sadly I've been displaced so I am currently packing and moving all my things to my new school site. I didn't think I could accumulate so much in 3 years! ]]> 2022-06-08 02:06:59 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214329021 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214390389 I've been enjoying the summer so far! I have been spending a lot of time reading, cleaning, taking walks, watching TV, and playing with my niece and nephew :) ]]> 2022-06-08 03:00:58 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214390389 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214416327 I have 2 days left of the school year. I am extra-excited because I am not teaching Summer School. I plan on catching up on sleep and spending time with friends and family...and the dog, of course.]]> 2022-06-08 03:26:14 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214416327 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214443239 Today we had our end of the year EML celebration. The kids loved it! We had snacks and games. I’m going to miss all my 5th graders! I’ve known most of them since they were in kinder. We have another week of school left before school ends. I am beyond ready for a break!]]> 2022-06-08 03:57:39 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2214443239 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2215142699 I have five days left of school and just spent the last four days making 38 children take all four sections of the WIDA Model assessment (one section is done 1-on-1). I'm teaching summer school so I realyl would have appreciated a calmer end of the year, but no such luck. ]]> 2022-06-08 15:31:35 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2215142699 emilyemc123 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2216603814 I have just found out I have not one but TWO weddings to plan for and take part in within the next six months. Two weddings, school, work, and a big move coming? Scary. It's all part of God's plan. But it'll give me a new perspective. I'm excited for what is to come, and I'm very excited to take a huge deep breath after it's all over! ]]> 2022-06-09 18:03:02 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2216603814 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2216620373 This is our first week of summer break and we are so excited that we are finally able to go on our favorite family vacation on a cruise ship. We are a bit apprehensive coming out of the pandemic, but we are optimistic it will be smooth sailing. Our older kids are all starting to stream in from their respective universities and we cant wait for some quality family time! ]]> 2022-06-09 18:23:26 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2216620373 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2216641732 Making my way through my third trimester with my first pregnancy and so glad to be done with the official school year! As shown above, I am "team girl" and adding another girl to the family to join my two step-daughters. It's going to be a busy summer with two classes to finish (including capstone project) and preparing for a baby! The preparations have been on the back burner to wrap up work, classes, and getting my husband's new business off the ground, but I am excited to have more time to focus on it soon!]]> 2022-06-09 18:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2216641732 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2217864288 This was the first week of summer break. So far, I've been trying to establish my summer routines, taking the dog for a walk/job ( that will eventually lead to running), protein shakes, organizing appointments that I have been rescheduling, and reading for me. I'll start my site collaborations next week, but this week has been blissful.]]> 2022-06-10 22:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2217864288 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2217959019 I'm enjoying my summer making my house beautiful! I love to organize and clean! For the past week, I have been going through every room in my house, cleaning it from top to bottom, and loving every moment.  ]]> 2022-06-11 03:24:46 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2217959019 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218241635 Last night I went to San Onofre for a friend's 40th birthday beach bonfire. All of our friends were there, and it was so fun to hang out and laugh with them. It felt like summer. I was exhausted after a long week, but I'm so glad I made the trek. One more week to go and then two months of many more nights like last night!]]> 2022-06-11 17:45:32 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218241635 ivanluviano https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218339692 This was my first week off for summer break. I’m enjoying this grace period in between the end of the school year, and the start of summer school next week. I’ll be teaching summer school for 4 weeks and I’m also combining it with good rest, good eating, and good exercising. Also, I’m now officially an uncle with my eldest sister giving birth to her son last week.

This was my first full year in person with students! I started during the 2019-2020 school year so I never actually got to close out a year with students. The group I had this year was amazing, I was saying some final words and I got all choked up so I just showed the end of the year slideshow to stop the tears from flowing. I'm excited for the summer! To rest, regroup, and travel! ]]> 2022-06-12 00:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218341806 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218362691 Since summer has officially started, I am excited to spend my summer relaxing with my family and friends. One of my favorite things to do each week during summer is taking my dogs to the beach! Last weekend was our first summer trip to the beach! ]]> 2022-06-12 01:53:03 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218362691 amandalopez22 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218405639 This was our first week of summer camp for our program! Summer camp is a lot of fun; this week, a petting zoo came to our site and went on a field trip to Pump It Up. This time around, summer camp will be an entirely new experience for me as I recently was promoted to Assistant Director. It is a little nerve-racking to take on new responsibilities, especially being in charge of 60+ kids, managing a staff, and keeping up with my schoolwork. However, I am very excited about this new chapter in my life. ]]> 2022-06-12 04:59:03 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218405639 https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218707255 This weekend was my school's annual golf fundraiser. Let me tell you, it was FUN! My group was close to the first tee and registration so we got to catch people still in a good mood. We were in charge of the putting and chipping contest. There were some really good golfers and it was a blast to get to be outside all day!]]> 2022-06-12 18:26:20 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2218707255 nicolefairfield https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2219015009 I still have one more week left for the school year and then I am officially on summer break. This summer is especially exciting for me since I will be giving birth to my first child in September! I have also been interviewing for a teaching position for next school year and been offered 4 positions in my district! My husband also just got his airman mechanic license and I am just so excited for the next few months to see where the world is going to take us! I hope those of you that are on summer break are enjoying it, and anyone that still has a week or two left, hang in there you are in the home stretch!]]> 2022-06-13 03:26:15 UTC https://padlet.com/manojmahindrakar/3lnjrbs0j9wdfrzo/wish/2219015009
