easy peasy

Today was one of those rare, easy days. It was the first day back after spring break, so no one called in sick. I spent the day helping the music teacher prepare for the Big Spring Musical. We spent hours ripping sheets apart to make mummy wrappings. Then we fitted kids for togas. You'd think that would be mindless but you have to make sure the big kids dont get the little sheets and the little kids dont get the big sheets. All in all, it was definitely an easy day. Hmmm...wonder what tomorrow will hold? ;)

its been awhile...

so i haven't updated my blog in, well, forever. and life has certainly changed since the last time i posted.

i am now a Building Sub, which means that i go to the same school every day and sub for whatever teacher is out on sick or personal day. i LOVE the building i'm in. it's in a lower-socioeconomic area, and is very small. there are only four SpEd classrooms in the building: two Severely Emotionally Disturbed (SED) and two Cognitively Disabled (CD) so i dont get to work with the population for which i'm training to teach. but that's all right. i've only got one more year to get my licensure, and then MY OWN ROOM! woooot!

i'd almost forgotten about this blog, and how much i enjoyed it. it was cathartic, blogging about my experiences as a substitute. i'll have to try and keep up with it again. ;)
