Pictures!




I haven't posted pictures in a while. This is Westley before and after his hair cut, and Lindsey on her Brithday.
Doesn't Westley look like such a handsome little boy with his hair cut!

First Day

So today was my first day teaching music. I had two kindergarten classes, and three sessions of first graders. The first Kindergarten class got off to a rocky start, and we went through all my planned stuff a little too fast. The Second Kindergarten class went a little better, as I was able to pace myself better.

The first 1st grade class fell apart. I wasn't able to keep control for very long, thanks to a few really rowdy boys. After that class I was thinking "What did I get myself into?" but I was determined, so I tried harder in the next class, and it paid off. Everything went smoothly, and we had just enough stuff to do in the time aloted. The last class went even better, and again, we almost ran out of stuff to do before class was over. I just jumped back to the begining, and it all worked out.
I'm really glad I got this job, and I know things will get better as the weeks go on.

So out of ten I'd give my first day a 7.5

Go me!
