day 2

with the anxiety of day one behind me, day two proved to be much smoother and less panicked. in general, i've found that my elementary school students are easily animated, making class time zoom, while the middle schoolers are a bit more of a challenge to involve. but, once you do rope 'em in, they are on! (stories and details coming soon!)

i've been tired from prepping--ooh! i write on wipe erase boards and staple welcome packets together and the printer is both my beloved friend and bitter enemy.--i've not had much time for other things...i think that after this first week, the transition from work to home will be less time consuming since i'll have moved into my new apt by this sunday! yeah! i found a nice place which would be described as a junior one bedroom apt in the states. photos forthcoming, but now, it's time for sleep! i'm exhausted!
