support.
As of 9 p.m. tonight, Ryan's support is DONE. :-) his deadline was midnight and he needed three percent when we got home from Muncie earlier. The Lord has such perfect timing even when Ryan wasn't sure where it was going to come from. :-) so thankful for him to be done because it means we can hang out before he leaves!

The tears are already starting for Ryan's departure in August. I cried all the way home from Ben and Chrissy's apartment tonight. I am not sure I am going to take this distance well this year.

Yesterday was our first day back with students. We didn't get a lot of time during our "work day" on Monday to actually work. We spent three hours talking about this new evaluation system the state is looking to implement next year. A lot of teachers were really frustrated because we could have used that time in our classrooms.

This new LJApp won't let me comment and that is frustrating! Sometimes I don't have time to get online on my laptop but have a few minutes somewhere to read your entries. Hopefully they will figure out the mistake and fix it soon.
Today is my last day of school for the week and I am thankful for that! It should be a pretty easy day, which I am also ( Read more... ) -

Tonight I am just having one of those nights where I feel completely overwhelmed. I don't even know why. Just having doubts about myself as a teacher, I suppose.
It is frustrating that I probably feel this way once a week. I think it's mostly when I start working on plans for the upcoming week. I just want to do more with my students who are ( Read more... ) -

Another week of school is down, and I am starting to feel a lot better about things in my classroom and my lesson planning. I am starting to really enjoy my academic classes, and I am ready for us to start working on yearbook stuff. I feel like a slacker teacher when it comes to that but our first deadline isn't until April, so I feel like we have ( Read more... ) -

Just an overall good day after school. I feel very refreshed, which is an amazing feeling. I left school at the end of my prep period today. Since I am not a full contract, my last period is free for me to leave.
I have been getting into the habit of teaching all day and then being completely exhausted when it comes to my prep at the end of the day ( Read more... ) -

In one of my classes we are reading a book of poems that a fictional character named Lonnie wrote. He's given me a chance to get to know the students through their responses to the literature, and this one girl critiqued a poem called "God Poem."
She wrote:
"I am not too excited about the 'God Poem.' I do not believe in God. God is never going to ( Read more... ) -

Ryan is so adorable. :) last night before bed, I laid down and he came back into my room and tucked in the sides of the comforter. Then he was going to leave and I said, "well aren't you going to read me a bedtime story?" So he started telling me the story of God, Adam and Eve. He went all the way through to Jesus, and I was dozing in and it. All I ( Read more... )
