classroom update

oh, i know you are all hanging on the edge of your seat, waiting to see what i have done in my classroom lately. yah right. but i'll share with you anyway.... simply because i don't have much else that i find blog worthy.

slowly but surely it's getting there. i can't stand to stay and work for more than a few hours at a time. there is no one up there right now and it's sooo quiet. plus, it's a very old school so it's creaks and cracks a lot and freaks me out! i tried to play music from my iPhone through the computer speakers, but it makes that intereference noise and that's worse than silence!

i was working very hard today, getting a lot accomplished, and then frustration set in with the laminator. i jammed it. dang it. i left a very nice note, though, apologizing to my principal. i hope he has mercy. 

on a good note, i finally signed my contract. what a relief. i am officially a classroom teacher! funniest thing of the day is casey asking me how much i was going to be making. i replied "about $2000 a month more than i do right now". quite the raise, huh?!?

  3. I hope you got some use out of those posters. Your room looks amazing!!! Next year will be a breeze and you won't have hardly a thing to do in the summer... you can enjoy it by the pool! :) Also, I highly suggest you get a radio/cd player. I turned on the radio a lot during projects and worksheets.
