Winding down

It feels like I'm only getting started. I have finally gotten the routines in place, I know where and when I should be and there are only two and a bit weeks left of school. I have a good grasp on the kids, reports are done and I feel sad that we are heading towards the end of the year. I'm not ready but the children have had it. The quality of their work is dropping and their concentration is also waning. Seems a shame but they are so ready for a break. This experience has really made me appreciate the time I had with a class for a whole year. You really do need four terms to get what you want out of them.
