Oh,no!!! It's Sunday night again! But not just any Sunday night, noooooooooo. Tomorrow is our first day back after Christmas break! The kids will either be exhausted from staying up all night and sleeping all day or they have been so bored at home that they can't stop talking to their friends. Little do the dumplings know that their teachers are just as sorry about not sleeping in as they are.
I have been alluding to a change coming for my grade level but have been unable to talk openly about this change. Well the students and parents have been informed so now I can spill the beans! My principal, the granter of my greatest wish, hired another teacher for my team. That means that my class of 35 will now be a class of 28 which is much better. Also, I get to teach ONLY social studies!!!! My favorite subject to teach!!!!!!!!! Thank you, Mrs. Principal.
I have always told my students the I am the queen of the classroom and they are merely my subjects. This all said with tongue-in-cheek, however, toward the end of Jan. I will have to have a crown on a tooth. That makes my claim to the throne official - I have the coronet of power. Albeit in my mouth!
