Is it still Tuesday?

Today felt like one of the longest days ever. I'm sure I have said this before, but today I really mean it. I subbed in a first grade class today and I had forgotten what it is like to have a "rough" class. My classes have been so good the past several years. Today this class reminded me of the first class I ever had. I'm hoping that I can reign the kiddos in when I have this group again for the long term sub job...6 weeks! They aren't really bad, they are just so talkative and wiggly. Which is very hard for me. In 3rd and 4th grade, that is normally under control and I just reinforce that. Now I have to teach that. Other than that, I think I will be okay. I'm excited to be in this school. It is very small, one class per grade. The staff has been very nice and I even know a couple of people.

I just talked to Andy and he's checking the blog too. He lets me know that I haven't updated it. He's 8 hours ahead of me and works when I'm working. It's nice that we can be in communication. Technology is great!

I have kindergarten tomorrow for half day and then this first grade in the afternoon and again on Thursday. I'll make it through. Gotta be strong!
