Ready or Not...

Well, the room is ready (kind of), lesson plans are typed, desks are labeled, and copies have been made. Open house is tomorrow night. After two full weeks of training, meetings, meetings, and more meetings I think I am finally ready to welcome students...but man am I exhausted! I would like to say I am going to spend the weekend resting up and preparing for Monday, but I know I will be busy worrying about all the details of that first day (while chasing my busy little boy around and trying to clean up the mess that is my house). Teachers get nervous about the first day too, and it doesn't matter how many years we have been teaching. This year is extra nerve racking for me being in a new school and new grade, but I have an AWESOME support system. I pink puffy heart my new coworkers. I hope they feel the same about me! I am so excited to meet all my new little friends tomorrow night, and I am ready to get this school year started! I know we are going to have a fantastic year. As far as the blog goes, I am going to make it my goal to post once a week at least. I am working on getting blog access at school so students can also view the blog (under my supervision of course) and contribute eventually. So far that hasn't happened. I am packing my camera to take tomorrow so I can get lots of pictures of the room and of course open house. I will update sometime in the next week, hopefully with some pictures and all kinds of fun news about our first week!
