We are off to a great start! I am so excited to get into my classroom every. Single. Day! After last year’s huge classes and no planning period, I was absolutely exhausted at the end of each day.
But this year is different. I have manageable classes, two full sections of Spanish 4 (a first for us!!), new chairs, and a better attutude!
Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana provides the grant for these chairs. I went from this…..
These chairs are amazing! But even better than the chairs are the attitudes students come to class with this year. They are ready to learn and ask a ton of questions. In two separate classes we have “gone rogue” and ditched the plan for the sake of some really good conversation. One class ASKED me to write a unit for them about Cuba. Seriously. They ASKED!! They want to learn more about our relationship with Cuba and immigration and federal policies. Of COURSE I will do that!
Seriously, I’m floored.
I hope everyone’s year is off to this great of a start!
