Having seniors and it being May, it's that time of year when we are all done - or at least we all wish we were done. We have just a little material left to cover, yet we wish we could make it all just disappear. The students are anxious for graduation (though some are nervous about being able to actually pass to graduate).
Part of me wishes we could hurry up and it just be June 7th (our graduation date) but I know that these are also some of the best days of teaching still. I get to talk about life, not just economics. I get to calm nerves about what comes next for them. I get to see the joy of them getting scholarship and acceptance letters. I get to see relief after AP tests are done. These are the rewarding days. yet these are the hard days - we are all done.
So keep pushing and keep teaching. It'll be June before to long.
