Off to classes!!!

Well, it has been a whirl-wind last week and a half. I was hired Wednesday was a week ago, and had to start on Thursday at St. Luke's Episcopol Schoo. Whew!!!!!!! All last week I had workshops and time in the classroom to get things ready for tomorrow. I am ready and I am not stressing over it now. I did a week ago, but I decided that I would just go with the flow. I met parents on Friday, and believe me, they told me what they were expecting from the school year. I just smiled and told them the plans I had for the year's lessons and they seemed pleased. Diplomacy doesn't belong just in the United Nations. I have mapped out what the curriculum will look like for the entire year, now I just have to plug it into the literature and grammar units I am doing. NO PROBLEM!!!!!!!! It seems to have calmed down a bit, considering how I started. I hope I can keep ya'll up to speed on things after I get into the teaching mode. Later
