So, thanks to the class size ammendment, I was able to move to a new grade level.
Although, it was a whirlwind, found out for sure on a Weds, packed and moved classrooms(AGAIN!!), unpacked, set up room, got a new partner on Thursday and yet another new partner on Friday and Monday I started teaching reading and writing again.
Hooray to it all. NOT easy to start over on day 25+ of the school year, but I am beyond delighted to have Tammy back and as my partner and to be back in a classroom that I spent many years in.
Everything does truly work out the way it is supposed to!! Sometimes it just requires a "test" or two of our patience. But, it does all work out.
TOday begins the first day of the 2nd nine weeks and although I still feel like I am learning about my new babes, I have 15 third graders, a new/old classroom, a new/old partner and I am one happy camper.
We also got a classroom pet-guinea pig named Field Goal thanks to a grant for pets in the classroom AND my lil guy is on some great meds for his ADHD.
It has been a trial and error getting dosage correct, but so far sooooooooooo much better.
Bring on some Fall weather as our Fall Festival is next Friday and I am ready for it.
Happy Monday!!
