The first 9 days of school . . .

So I have now had 9 official days of teaching experience. Each day is a different day, and I am so amazed by what I see each and every day in the classroom. I am so surprised how I am not even nervous at all and its only the second week. All the things I was scared of before the year began are the things I dont even think about now. I am really enjoying teaching, but I am so exhausted!!! I never imagined how tired I could be at the end of the day. I am anxious to see how this year goes and how it will change me as a person. I find myself already getting attached to these kids especially when I find out about their home-life, family history, situations, etc. This second week was so much easier because I know what to expect, and I am getting to know most of my kids names. I really feel like we have a classroom community, and I feel like I am in the right place. As far as technology goes, I do not have a lot of resources. I have a classroom set of calculators and I use my overhead projector daily. I do have access to the library computer lab but there are only 10 computers and they are almost always booked for another class. We do have a team website where I will be posting homeowrk and blogs for my students to respond to. I am really excited because I am learning so much each new day as a teacher. I am so glad that I am a part of this program and a part of the MMS staff!!
