I know it has been a little over a month since I have posted, but here I am. So much has been going on at work. A lot of changes on top of the usual beginning of the year stuff. Some days I still feel like I am a chicken running around with my head cut off. But then I remind myself that it is only August and that is allowed for the first few weeks.
As you know, I am a special education teacher. Well, my district is implementing full day kindergarten. Guess who works next to the kindergarten classrooms? Guess who may have to move their whole classroom? Guess who finally has their classroom how they want it? The answer to all of those questions is ME! The other special ed teacher moved this week. If enrollment continues to increase, I will be next. I work in a very transient area, so it is hard to determine our enrollment at certain times.
But, don't get me wrong! I totally love the idea that we are offering full day kindergarten. I think in the long run it will be very beneficial to the students. It just creates a lot of work to start up.
I am also the new sponsor for student council this year. Just got home from a sponsor meeting. Can't wait to get started with that. Oh and my grad school classes start up this week too! Did I forget to mention, I teach all day too!?
When school is in session, it is a never ending day. Sometimes the days blur together. I am exhausted by Fridays! But, I love what I do and I cannot imagine doing anything else.
How is your year starting off?
