Tell me I can sleep until at least…next Friday. This week has been something else!
Exhibit A:
On Tuesday morning, I was admiring all of the student teachers in the building thinking about how nice it would be to have another adult in my room. Well at about 7:30, {as my kiddos were walking through the door} I was greeted by a sweet girl who claimed that she would be student teaching with me. After I asked her a few times {maybe a few hundred} if she was sure that she had the correct classroom, I welcomed her in and bless her little heart…she is now with me…full time…until April! {Seriously…bless. her. heart!} Ha! I felt AWFUL that I had absolutely zero activities planned to get to know her AND I had not prepped my kids….oh dear! I think I was in a slight state of panic, but we made it! She will be an awesome addition to our classroom and I am so, so, SO excited to help her along. Let’s just hope she doesn’t run for the hills, because I am sure that there will be several times that she may think I have totally lost my mind! BUT…I am pretty sure that everyone has already warned her! :)
Exhibit B:
On Wednesday Morning at about 7:40, I get a call from the front office telling me that I will have a new student…in about 5 minutes. Then they asked if I would need a desk…and in my next state of panic, I thought to myself…”No, no, I will just ask her to sit in the floor! YES, I NEED A DESK!” But instead, I said it with a little more class…”Yes, please!” She is another wonderful addition to our classroom and is totally presh! {Thank the Lord!}
Exhibit C:
During all of this craziness, my kids definitely spilt my coffee all over my letter of intent. Do you think they will still give me a job next year…even if it has a HUGE coffee stain in the center?
Exhibit D:
As we were eating last night with friends, one of the precious little babies who joined us dropped my phone behind the booth {which just so happens to be screwed into the wall}. Really? He was so proud! Ha! I may or may not get my phone back!
So, they say that your classroom is tested in times of change. Well, friends…I am pretty sure that we have had just that! I was super proud of my kids as they helped both of our newbies feel right at home! {Even if they did get a tad crazy here and there! I TRIED to be understanding…this week!}
Did anyone else have a crazy week?!? Just wondering! :)
I will be back tomorrow to share some of the activities that we were busy with this week and to hopefully post two new little units that we will be working through over the next few weeks!
I don’t know about you, but I am inside enjoying this rain, my cozy fire, and LOTS of movies!
Have a great weekend, friends!
