Yesterday, in my 'trying to make my day better than yesterday' thought process, I told my Grade 1 students that I was feeling grumpy and that if they were quiet while the Teacher was busy in the hallway, I would turn on some music.
*flashback*
I was with most of these students last year, because I was in 2 Kindergarten classes during the day. So, at the end of the year, I made all of them mixes of different music that they had learnt, heard throughout the year.
They started working quietly. So I put on a mix that I made this year, and this song started playing,
most of the students recognized it and started half singing. One boy came up to me and said,
"This is the Saskatchewan song. You put it on the cd you made for the class at the end of Kindergarten. I still listen to it everyday after school."
and there you have it.
:)
Day instantly bettered and heart instantly warmed.
