Week 1

The last couple of days have been good, getting back into the classroom, getting reacquainted with students, schedules, etc. Bonnie and I have been able to plan out what I will be in charge of, adding a little more each week until I will eventually take the entire class all day in the middle of Feb. I am grateful the the gradual process and know that it will be a very beneficial experience. I have been able to attend a faculty meeting this week and it was really nice to meet some of the other teachers. The students have been great. They have all been well behaved and I am enjoying that for the time being. J (my 6 year old student) was being tested back in Nov. for placement. Since then he has been moved into a 1st grade classroom and is thriving. I have seen and talked with him a couple of time and he really seems to be enjoying where he is at and what he is able to accomplish. Not only am I happy for him for his sake, but I will be honest, I am happy that I don't have to worry about him like I was back in Nov. Things thus far are great and I am happy to be back.
