Last Months at Burke's!

It has been a few months since I last updated this blog and I am hoping to get back to it. My final year at Burke's ended with a bang. We went on three more field trips, one of which was an overnight trip to the Marin Headlands. This trip definitely solidified my group of third graders as a strong community. There was laughter, hiking, sleeping in a room with 12 girls, and the creation of an educational song called, "What Does the Goby Say?" It went something like this:

"What does the Goby say?
I live in brackish water, 
I live in brackish water,
I like a mix of salty and fresh,
I like a mix of salty fresh."

There were more verses, that were highly relevant to the actual life of the endangered Goby living in the lagoon in the Marin Headlands, but I can save that for another day. :) It was a solid end to the school year and my time at Burke's. I will certainly miss the school, the community and the students, but I am on to my next adventure! Check out the photos below to see some of the amazing things we did in the last months of school!
