The end of the school year is always a time for MIXED EMOTIONS. Some of us are feeling HAPPY because we have fun plans for summer break, or we get to go and visit friends or family we don't get to see all the time. Some of us feel SAD, because we are going to miss seeing our friends and teachers. Some of us feel ANXIOUS or SCARED because we are not sure what next year will be like. Who will our teacher be or who will be in our class? Will any of my friends be in class with me? Some of us are EXCITED for new challenges and new friends and new experiences. And, if you are like Mrs. Chuhta, some of you might feel a mix of all these emotions and more. What ever you are feeling is the PERFECT feeling to be having. Just make sure you share your feelings with someone, because sometimes sharing your MIXED EMOTIONS can help you understand them better.
Here is a story about different feelings or emotions you may be having...
