First last day.... we hope :)

( Found this on Google and loved it :) This exactly describes my fourth graders )

I started my student teaching today as well as the first day of "school", I have one contract study class that I am in. Man alive if it wasn't for my super kind, very supportive, and ubber cute Mentor teacher I think I would have cried on my first day. He has become my rock even though it is only the first day.

I had two kids hit their knee from sliding in the gym and cried , one girl slid and fell and hit her head and cried, and one kid got tagged in a game and started crying. While I feel for them in the since that they are hurt I have no idea how to handle it when the tears flow like Nigra Falls and you can't hear what they are saying because the wine and the sniffles get in the way.
( ^ this was at the elementary school)


At the High school, my first day there I had a sub, my poor mentor over there is going through a rough spot but said he would be there tomorrow. Lets hope because the lady who came into sub did not have a sunny disposition on life and being in that school, she does in school suspension, so being with her was kind of a debby downer. The students didn't like her much either...

I guess my man concerns at the moment are making it through crocodile tears and making sure everything I need to get done gets done. Please pray that I can teach myself statistics too :)
