There has been a fairly big change in my life since I last posted. Most of you know what it is. I got a job teaching 4th grade at the same school that I student taught at! We are over a month into the school year now, and I am feeling quite exhausted most of the time, haha. Everyone talks about the first year of teaching being tough, and they are right! There is just so much to keep up with, do, and remember to do. There are many good things about it as well, thankfully. I am in a great school and there are a whole lot of people who are very supportive and helpful to me and the other new teachers in the school.
We have departmentalized in 4th grade. This means that the students switch from class to class throughout the day. I teach reading to my homeroom and three blocks of writing. While it does make for more students to keep track of and more writing to grade, at least I do not have to plan for all the subjects!
On an unrelated note; I am glad that it is finally turning towards fall! I am really looking forward to Thanksgiving, and even more so to Christmas (and not just because of the two week break, haha). I love this time of year.
