here it is,
my classroom:





here's what I've learned so far:

1. don't be afraid of silence
2. wear flat shoes (seriously...my feet hurt)
3. be more strict than you think you need to be at first
4. breathe
5. eat something
6. seniors are hard at first...but then they are great
7. they will try and get away with things
(let's be honest, they will try and get away with anything they can. don't we all?)

lastly,
8. at least one moment happens every day that makes all the hard stuff worth it.
and it's magical.

first week of teaching...done & done!

p.s. yes, that is a picture of Evita on my bulletin board.
no, i haven't sang to them.


yet.
