My First Day of School
Well, today was interesting I suppose. It was what I call the "outclass mishmash day". Basically, on Monday's we, the "outclass" teachers, meaning music, art, PE and computer, take every student in every grade level. So, since there are four teachers, and five sections of each grade, that means we each take a class and a fourth. If library were willing to jump in the rotation, we could just go to a five day normal rotation for the classes and not have these stupid Mondays. Anyway, since Monday's are a special situation, it means that I have to come up with a separate plan for each grade level on Monday, as well as their regular lesson plans for their actual rotation the rest of the week. Grrr.
Today though, we just took every kid in every grade to the gym and went over the class rules for each section. It was pretty easy, and not at all like a real day of teaching. My first true test of merit will come tomorrow!
