a winding process.

I think it's finally started to hit just about everyone in the school that the year's going to be ending in just about 2 weeks time. There's this sort of emotion around the entirety of Swanson School that just screams "Summertime!" We finished our Geometry unit today with a look at location using grids and scape maps. It's strange to think that the unit we just started not all that long ago is already wrapping up with AsTTle testing tomorrow.

There's also a huge amount of excitement in the air with Jandal Day and Push Play Day coming up tomorrow. Jandal Day is apparently an annual activity to support Surf Life & Beach Safety. Essentially, any student or person who wears jandals (flip flops) is urged to donate money to the Surf Life organization. It's meant to be just a day for the kids to have a day full of activities and fun to enjoy the beginning of summer and to promote being active. I'm crossing my fingers that it will actually be a reality as multiple people have been talking about how it is meant to rain tomorrow. So we'll be seeing how it all plays out come tomorrow morning.

I'm actually quite impressed with how most students are still staying very much so on target with their work despite how close we are to the end. Every once in a while there will be a little surge in energy or sass. Aside from these moments, it's been pretty smooth, but I'm hoping that I'm not speaking too soon. With so little time remaining, it's bound to get a bit more crazy soon enough...

For now, it's off to doing some sort of sun dance to prevent the rain from coming down tomorrow and a little bit of shut eye to prepare for a potential staff-jandal race.

Cheers!
