Well I have added math to my language arts and morning meeting. Now I have almost the entire day. Our school alternates a unit of social studies with a unit of science, so the only thing I have left to add is science/social studies. Monday is our busy day anyway, but yesterday I had my first observation and we had vision screening. I don't even know where the day went!! The observation went pretty well. I was a little frustrated because I had been trying to use the SMART board instead of the overhead. However, I couldn't get all of them to work and then I couldn't find one. It was maybe not the best day to try that differently. Oh well.
Now our school counselor is doing a character lesson with the kids. She is an interesting lady. One of the first days I was here, she had on a dress that was far too revealing in the chest area. She also does these presentations for the kids. I think she tries to make them interesting, but they are pretty juvenile-below their level even. She reminds me of someone presenting a character lesson that was required in freshman year of college. She also calls them "guys" all the time, which drives me nuts!
I am feeling much more comfortable in the school. I have some teachers that I usually eat lunch with and we chat about lessons and students. It is a nice time of the day. I can't wait to have my very own classroom!
