I can't believe it has been over a month since my last blog. Where does the time go? So much has happened in the past 30 some days .... some things might bore you if I insist on writing them here ... other things would astonish and shock you ... of course I'll keep those to myself as well.
I will let you know that I'm starting round 2 tomorrow in the classroom. The new semester begins and I would be lying if I did not admit to my nerves and uncertainties. For two of my classes I will be blessed with the presence of the same kids ... it will be nice to continue building on the rapport and trust from last semester. My other two classes; however, consist of a brand new batch of kids. It's kinda like the beginning of the year all over again. Having to learn more names. Establishing rules and procedures within my classroom. Building rapport. I wish I could snap my fingers and all the hard work of gaining the trust of this new batch of kids would be . . . well . . . there's no use in wishful thinking. Tomorrow will be a great day. Yes . . . a great day!
