Mon, 08-14-2006 - 9:39am

Time to make sure my alarm clock still works!! In honor of going back to school (work, I'm a teacher for those of you who are new) I thought we'd do a 'Back 2 School' QOTW ;-)


1. When you were little how long were your summer vacations?


2. What did you like about having to go back to school?


3. Did you have a favorite teacher in school? If so, what did they teach and why were they your favorite?


4. Did you wear a school uniform? If so, describe it for us....


5. If you have children, or know the local school district- when do they go back to school?

1. When you were little how long were your summer vacations? I'm not sure like 2 months. I just know the older I got the quicker they seemed to go by.


2. What did you like about having to go back to school? I'm thinking nothing.


3. Did you have a favorite teacher in school? If so, what did they teach and why were they your favorite? I really liked my 4th grade teacher Mr. Reader. One isn't t hat the coolest name for a teacher!!! Plus I had his wife in 1st grade and liked her too. Not sure really why I liked

1. When you were little how long were your summer vacations?
I guess about 2 months. I recall getting out of school mid to late June and going back after Labor Day.


2. What did you like about having to go back to school?
Buying new school supplies.


3. Did you have a favorite teacher in school? If so, what did they teach and why were they your favorite?
I don't recall having a fav. Although, I do recall having a teacher twice (1st and 2nd grade) and I really liked her. I remember hating my 4th grade teacher, she was strict, but she also made us square dance. lol


4. Did you wear a school uniform? If so, describe it for us....
nope.


5. If you have children, or know the local school district- when do they go back to school?
I have no clue. I think they start like we did before, after Labor Day. Weirdly, my cousin in HI, starts in August. so strange.

I remember getting almost three months off. We'd start at the beginning of June and go right through to the beginning of September. Though as I got older they got shorter! Now
