I think.
The faculty and staff have had many meetings this week, which means I stayed late every day to work on my classroom. We had "Meet & Greet" this afternoon from 4:30-5:30pm, and I had 3 parents come! I was very prepared with some homemade cookies, and well, most of the teacher's enjoyed them. :)
I won't be able to write much tonight because I still have to write out my plan - minute by minute - for tomorrow. Oh, and, it's 8:30pm and I am absolutely exhausted!
Here are some pictures of my classroom!
I thought I should show you all now - because I'm sure it will not look this clean for long...
The stick kids are holding flags that say "1st Grade Rocks!"
Word Wall, Assistant Teacher's desk, Computers, Promethean Board, & Helper Chart
I am so excited for tomorrow!
I will close tonight with this prayer:
A Teacher's Prayer
I want to teach my students how
To live life on earth -
To face its struggles and its strife
And how to improve their worth -
Not just the lessons in a book
Or how the river flows -
But how to choose the proper path
Wherever they may go -
To understand eternal truth
And know right from wrong -
And gather all the beauty of
A flower and a song.
For if I help the world to grow
In wisdom and in grace,
Then I shall feel that I have won
And I have filled my place.
And so I ask your guidance, God,
That I may do my part,
For character and confidence
And happiness of heart.
-James J. Metcalf
