32 Third Graders and One Class Bunny


What? You never heard of it??? Neither did I, until "one of the greats" shared it with me about two weeks ago. So, log on to Amazon as soon as you are done reading this post to order a must read book for teachers of all grades! 

Right about now most of us are returning to a "human" state again as we ended the school year, said our happy and painful good-byes, and the most dreadful packing up the classroom! I feel my shoulders dropping from around my ears, the dark circles under my eyes are beginning to fade, my hands are marker free, the voices have stopped (teacher... maestra.... mom....Ms.... can you help plan the retirement party, what is the aims web password.... did you do your cum folders...) and my muscles are not sore from carrying all of my work home! Yep, feeling more like a human already. 

32 Third Graders and One Class Bunny has rejuvenated me with lots of laughs and some tears -sniff, sniff- but best of all the book shares the life lessons and thoughts of a teacher. Sometimes, you just need to know there are more of us out there that feel the same thing. With that being said, get the book, laugh, cry, and return to your human state!
