What an AMAZING week

Last week was not only my first week of school, but also my first week of school on my new campus. As many of you should remember, the school I have spent the last 7 years teaching at was re-purposed leaving all of us moving to new campus'. It wasn't until February or so before we really knew what our options would be and it was probably April before we ever found out where we were going to be this year for sure. All I can say is that all that stress seems to have been worth it. I'm teaching at Lee Elementary in Grand Prairie and feel so lucky to be there. My bosses have been amazing to work with all summer and made this new adventure such a memorable experience for me and all the other wonderful people I work with.

Right now I have 17 kids in my class and they seem to be an overall pretty good group. Like any group of kids, they do like to talk a lot, but they're working on fixing that :-) I'm also team teaching with one of the girls I taught with last year so I'm only teaching Reading, Writing and Social Studies. I got to do this for a semester last year, and loved it so I'm looking forward to getting the opportunity to do it full time this year.

Hopefully now that life is back to some sort of normal for me, I'll have more time to blog about what's going on in my life. Really, nothing new is going on with me so my job and kids are all the excitement I have to talk about.

Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
