3rd Trimester Exams
March 7, 2011 9:29 pm From the TeacherDear Kids,
3rd Trimester Exams are coming up next week and I am jittery. Teacher Mom gets stressed and demands more from the three of you.
As I’ve said, you only got several days to go before summer vacation starts and it is important to concentrate more for the last batch of exams, the third trimester exams after that big school production where you, my son has a role. Yey for that!
I know you are all tired. We all are. We have been waking up very early since June, me at quarter past 4am and you at around 5am to prepare for school. You are all tired from going home late too, about 6pm. Sometimes one of you almost falls asleep while eating or not once had one of you went to bed with hair slightly damp from your bath.
I know this isn’t healthy and your young bodies are craving for long hours of sleep. I do too. And I feel sad when I think about this.
Knowing that this school year is about to end in a few days, you will perhaps miss the action once you get bored with summer vacation.
So I suggest you give those books and notes some loving by reading them before you all part ways to keep yourself occupied and banish the thoughts of missing your classmates for a two months.
Time surely flies when you are having fun, isn’t it? From crazy hectic to super fun playtime with friends, I know this school year was, still is as of this time, one of the best you’ve ever had in terms of meeting new friends, learning new concepts and ideas and trying new things.
Oh yes, I know, my patience has been tested time and time again and I know you underwent a lot of stresses too. After all these things, we look back and learn and laugh from our mistakes.
You, on the other hand, will try to do better next school year and have as much fun as you can, as long as you are still young. Isn’t it what the school wants you to do? enjoy your childhood for you are children for a short time and you should enjoy these years.
As for me, I want you to enjoy being children and learn not just the academics but the smarts to help you become the best that you all could be.
I love you all.
Love, Tiger Mom, XOXO
