I started my new job and love it!!! I love being in a school that values the teacher's opinion. Working for a principal that treats you with respect. Talk about changes though!
My kids did well on the state test in spite of having multiple subs throughout most of the year. Now we're getting ready for a new school year starting in just 2 weeks. The summer has flown by. I've been working in my soon to be old classroom for the last 2 weeks. Boxing up and throwing away the various things in my classroom. Some of it mine, some of it the other teachers, and some of it from teachers of years past. I will be moving into a temporary building for the first few days of school and from there into a brand new wing! A classroom that will be all mine. No ghosts of teachers past lurking in the corners and shelves. A place I can make my own.
A new classroom needs a new theme so this year I'm decorating my classroom in zebra stripes and hot pink! I've been scouring the sister cities for anything zebra striped. What I can't buy, I make! I have been working for two weeks on signs for all four 3rd grade teachers. Tonight I finished and I'm rather proud of how they turned out.
