He girls another teacher here! I'm a third grade inclusion class teacher. I'm the spec. ed. teacher in the room..which I'm sure you will notice by my grammatical errors...LOL. Talk about stress..AGH! I used to be a self contained teacher and this year decided to try something new...bad idea. I love it but my principal and I had a falling out and I'm not being tenured....STRESS! I will be happily leaving. My last day is the 27th of June. Yeah, we stay in school forever up here! I'm probably going to do homecare with early intervention children who are on the Autism spectrum. I guess it's what I'm best at and I get to make my own schedule. I'm working on IEP's and annual reviews. All of our state testing ended in March. My kids did well so I was really proud of them. By the way, one of them asked me if I was pregnant today...sweet 3rd graders! I told her," No, just fat."
By the way, I noticed that there are a lot of teachers at the RE's office too! So strange...
Hey fellow crazy teacher! I used to have afternoon planning time last year and loved it but am glad I have morning now! My U/S tech is only in til 10am so I always have to have morning appts. Drives me nuts. My principal always looks at me like I have two heads when I ask to come in late so I just started to email him instead. He turns beat red when any woman asks him anything so the thought of telling him I have to get a wand up the crothch is actually starting to look like a good idea! It would be fun to se him almost pass out! HA!
I am counting the days and almost will be counting the minutes those last two weeks. This year has really felt like it has gone by fast but now it is slowing wayyyyyyy down. Driving me bonkers. I wish state testing was earlier in the year - they have lost it by the time the test comes. I was reviewing today and all they did was stare at me - LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS INFORMATION BEFORE!!!!! I mean, COME ON!!! But I have this week to finish up reviewing and then testing and then we all get to relax a bit. We plan fun stuff to keep them busy - I just bought the series "Planet Earth" and my kids are sooooooooo excited to watch it. Me too. I haven't sat down and watched them because I wanna watch them with my kids. Ugh... Going to take a bath and read. That is my favorite part of summer - I have a little time to actually READ! YAY!!!
Hugs to all and SSBD to everyone too!
Thank you for asking. I am exhausted and I am growing landforms on my chest, but loving every minute of it!! DH is just thrilled to the moon. Mostly I am just nervous and on edge, all signs point to things being great though, I will have my beta repeated thursday and see the doctor, and hopefully he will give me an u/s soon!!! I will keep you updated, anxious to see if there is more than one in there.
How are you doing? Feeling good? Any appts in the near future? Keep us updated - you are in my thoughts, girly!
I just saw your post, I am a third grade elementary teacher, it is an interesting concept!
i am sure it will be nice to be able to schedule without worrying about work! i am so jealous! i am an attorney and just tell my re - no that date/time cannot work due to my schedule -- this is when i am available, and he makes it work. thank goodness. no subs permitted so i have to make it work. it stinks!
