Former student (now a big first grader): "Mrs. Sommerville! I got my new glasses!"
Me: "Oh honey, that's great, I'm going to wear MY glasses to school tomorrow and then we can have a Glasses Day!"
Former student: "You know, I can read better now!"
Me: "Yep, glasses are **cool** that way!"
Just found out I am teaching Kindergarten next year! I am currently living/working in Germany and teaching K-12 Special Ed, moving back to OR next year and got assigned AM/PM Kinder. Came across your blog and thought maybe I could learn a thing or two!

Very occasionally I wear glasses to throw the kids for a loop. (first grade) I usually wear them when a kid gets a new pair for the first time to make them feel cool. The kid is right... they ALWAYS make you read better.
