Here I Go!

Here I go trying something new! I love computers, building websites, and now I'm going to try out blogging; something I've not done before. I decided I needed a blog to let the parents of children in my classroom know what is happening each day, what events are coming up, what money or forms need to be turned in, and anything else about the classroom I'd like to share. I hope that I'll have many parents communicate by responding to my blog. I think it will be a great tool for communication.

So far, Lynn, who team teaches with me, and myself have managed to move the furniture around in our classroom where we want it. We were moved from a doublewide trailer to two classrooms inside the building. We've also put the many boxes to unpack in the areas where they belong. Now we've got the difficult job of unpacking and decorating. I'll be going to school tomorrow to continue working. Although setting up a classroom is hard work, it's nice to create a new environment and feel like we're getting off to a fresh start. Lynn and I will be team teaching again for the second year. We felt that our year together was very successful, as each of us brought different strengths to the classroom. Our classrooms are combined into one room, and we conduct our classes as one big family. Hopefully, tomorrow, we'll be closer to being ready.
