My First Day of School

Well, today was the first day with kids. It was only a half day so that made it go by really fast, but I have a feeling it's going to go by that fast on full days too, at least at first. Many of the kids that I have this year seem very interested in Language Arts (for once!) and many seemed organized and ready to go. A drastic change from last year's kids already. I only had three kids not bring their required school supplies to Homeroom.

I only had to yell at one kid, and I have the feeling we won't be very good friends, but he'll survive. =)

Nothing really exciting happened. I sweated a lot. We had a meeting about Tourettte's and the video we watched was very well done, and very sad. We have a 5th grader in the building this year that has it.

So I'm back into a routine and I'll make sure to share more exciting days when I have them.
