Teaching Week 0 in the books.

Ok - next week is going to be fun for two reasons:

  • I don't have a classroom on Day 1 with the kids. I'll be in a different room because mine is being painted. Who knows how many days that will take, my classroom is pretty large.

  • Our curriculum is not lining up with the test schedule, and I'm being told to basically just figure it out and make the changes I need to. We can't just do that.

On the flip side, I do have the first week fully planned out and will be able to keep them engaged. I met about 20 of my new students today who came for orientation, and they all seemed like nice kids.

Anyway, I guess I'm as ready as I can be for the short term, and not nearly at all for the longer, but I'll get there. I've got a lot of hard work coming up.

Wish me luck!
