Being a Teacher is Awesome

And I will add having that person come up to you to say hello because they remember you with fondness - even though you might not recognize them because they've grown up! (Same goes for a parent who tells you, "My child used to be in your classroom!")

Have everyone bring at least one cardboard box from home. Yes, they can bring more (for those who might night be able to bring one.) Have them cut out shapes, glue, and then color/paint. You can call them Mardi Gras masks.
