We are living the same life. I have 15 girls and 5 boys, and they gave me the gifted class so it should be a good year. I have had some rough classes in the past, and it's only first grade.

Re: Teachers how was your first day back?

I had a really nice day. I looped with my 4th graders, so there were only a few new faces this morning. I have more students than I was anticipating, but I really enjoyed today.

I could not believe we had extended day today! Half my class had to go to the office to call their parents because they were expected at 2:20, not 3:10. Chat Icon These kids weren't targeted last year and likely won't be targeted this year because they had good scores.

I had my homeroom for the equivalent of 5 periods (and my other class for 2) because homeroom was extended through periods one and two (my preps, of course!) then I had three and four with my other class, then 7, 8 and extended day with my homeroom. I changed seats during extended day and my AP wanted to know why they weren't reading. Chat Icon

WOW if I didn't know better I would say we worked in the same district. Except I don't have cafeteria duty I have PM bus duty Chat Icon and I was given all the months that there are no vacations in of course Chat Icon and we have a contract-- well if you can call that pitful thing a contract

Oh and because of all the chaos in the guidance department from the end of last year and the summer-- well- lets just say some students will have no classes to go to tomorrow.

Re: Teachers how was your first day back?

I'm not a teacher, but DH is and he hasn't spoken much except to say that his principal said to him 'How dare you show up here again' Yeah, um, he's tenured. If you don't want him there then place him elsewhere. She won't let him transfer because she 'doesn't want to pawn him off on someone else'. How'd you like that as a boss to have to deal with every day. Oh, she also said 'I'm going to make sure you don't have an easy year'. His union rep was standing there the whole time- doing nothing. This is after she cancelled the phys ed program and is forcing him to teach a 3rd grade class. He hasn't been in a classroom for 4 years. This year is not going to be a good one.

Re: Teachers how was your first day back?

I am exhausted!!! I've been in work already since last Tuesday and the sleep deprivation hit quick - lol. Was tossing and turning last night - couldn't sleep. Actually glad the kids are coming tomorrow b/c I've left so many messages on answering machines and it's easier to find the kids when they're in school!

I curse the alarm clock!Chat Icon
