Dear Class, You have mail coming! In your note, I tell you which candy I sneak from the kids' Easter candy stash. I shouldn't be eating candy. We have been on a baking streak this week, and we have TONS of sweets. Emma made brownies from scratch. (Who does that when the box ones taste so good?!) She also made baked chocolate donuts with chocolate frosting. And I clearly lost my mind when I thought it would be a good idea to quadruple the waffle recipe I used. We will be eating waffles for breakfast for the next two weeks!! Have you been baking at home? Or do you prefer to finish off your Easter candy before someone else in your house does? Ha! I'm also really missing my teacher friends. Mrs. Scott visited in her red convertible, and we chatted in the driveway. And then Mr. Benefiel stopped by a few days later to talk outside. It was so good to see them and catch up on how they are doing. All the second grade teachers have been texting, emailing, and google meeting. We KNOW you miss your friends...because we miss our friends. I miss you! Love, Mrs. Smitley P.S.--Here's a glimpse into our Sunday baking craziness. Brownies, doughnuts, and waffles all got made in the same afternoon. What was I thinking??

AuthorWelcome! I'm a second grade teacher in Marshall, Illinois who is now unexpectedly homeschooling my three kids while our schools are closed for the coronoa virus. While I've always wanted to homeschool, this was not how I wanted to do it! Archives
