Well, today is a week from the official start of school. It hasn't seemed to drag at all, but for some reason it seems like longer than just one week! Right at this moment though I kinda sorta feel as if I've just run a marathon, and have a few more to run before the day is out!
With an entire new class, and half of that class completely new to the school, this past week has been full of groundbreaking things, and I feel as if I just keep repeating the same twenty things over and over and over again. One day they will figure out the concept of raising their hands, waiting to be called on, not shouting out answers, following directions, that now means NOW, and when is a good time to use the bathroom versus when it is a bad time to leave the room for five minutes!
I have to say, in spite of all that, I am enjoying my new group so far. I've seen some good things, and plenty of bad things, and I'm sure that it won't be long until this new group of kids becomes just as dear to me as any other that I have every worked with.
I'll try to post a picture of my new treasures soon, I just have to remember to bring my camera to class. No promises that my memory will decide to kick in...but I'll do my best! :)
