Back to School

Most of you know by now but I made the jump back into the classroom. What a journey it has been so far! About a week before school started, my principal found out that they could hire another teacher and I volunteered for the job. I soon found out that I would be teaching a 3rd and 4th grade split class and had just two days to through a classroom together. With the help of many wonderful people, I was able to do just that!

I have 8 fourth graders and 15 third graders. They keep me busy. They are extremely high spirited and full of energy. There is never a dull moment. We have had our share of trials and I have shed more than my fair share of tears. Am I crazy? Some people would say that and I would agree at times. However, I know that this is where I am supposed to be. I know that I can make a difference in the lives of these 22 kiddos. It is a day by day journey and one that will have a great reward at the end!
