10 Signs

So, everything is going well.  The students and I are making progress, learning and having fun.  Please pray for the faculty as there is a lot of sickness right now.

I was thinking the other day about what makes pre-k teachers different.  Generally, preschool and kindergarten teachers are the same in many broader ways.  However, I came up with this list specifically for me as a Pre-K4 teacher.  Those of you who are mothers/teachers of this age, you probably understand.  For the rest of you, this list may at least make you laugh as you think of me...and how this applies to me. :)


10 Signs You’re a Pre-K4 Teacher

10.  You spend your weekend making crafts
9.  You can throw a fit
8.  Dinner conversation includes poop, pee and vomit
7.  You have different colors on your hands and are usually covered in glitter.
6.  You’re good at playing hide and seek in a classroom
5.  Overseeing bathroom breaks is normal
4.  You’re really good at yelling “aim child!”
3. You spend your own money on a snack or lunch for “no child shall go hungry”
2.  You recognize the moments of “This is it.  This is why I’m a teacher” and enjoy them.
1.  You love it when a student wraps their arms around you, even if it is due to them missing their mom.
