And here are a few pictures of my own.

I had this girl clean out her desk a couple of weeks ago, and it still looked like this. Yesterday I made all the students take all of their things home except a pencil and a folder. She literally had her backpack stuffed full, plus two large bags full of stuff, plus a lunchbox and a few other miscellaneous items to carry. She wanted to leave some it there, and I said, "Nope! It all has to go today." Well, today, she showed up with a full backpack. I said, "Missy, what is in your backpack?" "Stuff." *cheesy grin*
As I reflected over the year, I really had a good year. My students were so cooperative, and they learned so much! I will miss them. They left me with a few goodbyes that I will treasure. :)
