So... my school year had a strange start. My classroom is downstairs and the pipes from the AC upstairs started to leak... some tiles started to fall and therefore I am not allowed to teach there until they fix them. Luckily this happened when the kids were not there. This has made it a rough start! When i signed up and got matched I was so excited! I got even more excited when I started getting emails with tracking numbers from my reddit Santa, yesimworkin. I had a long day yesterday since we had Back to school night and didnt get home until after 8. Tired and all... i got home to three boxes!!! I was already excited when I saw one of them was a box of paper!!! We are limited with the amount of paper we get and so i was sooooo excited to see that! Even more when I have 6 classes (about 150 students). Then I started to open what was inside and oh my... I was speechless as I was opening the materials. I arranged them to take a picture and I was still amazed at what had been sent me. I showed my students today and we actually had a conversation about the process, they actually got really into it and many were blown away. All I was able to say after a while was how thankful I was to receive all the materials that they would get to enjoy during the school year! So... Thank you to my reddit Santa... a million thanks because so many students will benefit from your great gift! Btw.. Im still waiting to receive more but I was too anxious to share with all of you!!! I will post more pictures to keep you all updated :-) EDIT: I received this beautiful bag and coffee mug today! I still cant believe it as I am writing this and looking at the gift I received on top of the materials I had already gotten. Bonus part was that the gift came with a note for me. Thank you so much!!!!! EDIT: I got one more box today!!! 192 markers that will come in handy for PBL projects and class activities! Thank you sooo much again! You are amazing!!!!
