Well, it's been a busy week. I didn't lose my class and get moved to kindergarten. yay! I guess I did a good job pleading my case to the vice principal on Friday. Then the grade level chair for first grade emailed the principal over the weekend. She said some very complimentary things about me, and then told the principal about another teacher in first grade that hasn't really been pulling her weight. She was really the only one on the team that didn't fit well and was kind of a drain on the rest of us. She's been teaching for over ten years but still acts like she doesn't know what she's doing. So if I were moved, the grade level chair would be left with her and two brand new teachers. I guess the administration decided that wasn't a good idea, so they decided to move the not so great teacher to kindergarten. It really makes more sense because she could just stay in her classroom, so no one had to physically move anything. Her class was split, so the remaining first grade teachers got three or four new students each. Mine are wonderful and have blended in quite well.
Tonight is the salsa social dance. I've been going to lessons for maybe two months now, so I think I know enough to actually go out dancing. I'm kind of nervous, but I think it will be fun. (There also might be a certain boy from salsa classes that I might be interested in.. I don't know if he's going to be able to come to the social though, so we'll see..)
