5/12/08  — 3 months ago

I am thankful for:
1. Summer being sooooo very near!
2. A good day with responsive students (who are ALSO doing the Happiness Manifesto as a lesson!)
3. Thunderstorms immanent (but not dangerous). We need rain so badly here.
4. My backyard finally finished being xeroscaped and a forgiving HOA giving me the green light to finish the front yard, too
5. Pizza and beer Sundays

Life Lessons

The students experiencing The Happiness Manifesto (or all the parts that are teachable) are students who are low-level, at-risk of dropping out seniors. Most are really becoming passionate about it; of course there are always some stragglers to joining the bandwagon. I just thought it was a great way to end the year and lead into (hopeful) graduation. I’ll let you know in 2 weeks if it’s a success! Wish me luck!!!! =0)

Wishing you mountain loads of luck

This sounds like a great idea. I’m glad to hear that it’s having such a positive impact.

I bet you’re one of those teachers that students always remember for all the right reasons.
