The Summer FLEW by!  I finished out the School Year as a 5th grade teacher, and was asked to stay on to teach during the Summer School Session.  What motivated me to actually do it was, my school needed a STEM teacher for the summer.  STEM is totally my thing.   The summer program went well, and I actually ended up teaching 2 classes simultaneously.  It was rather hectic, but good.
