You're Killin Me Smalls
The mostly boring life of a kindergarten teacher in NYC who watches too much tv and tries to be funny.

Day 1

Well today started day 1 of the second year of my school.  (We were a new charter school last year.) And of course we were in meetings from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm.  Very typical of my principal to schedule a first day like that.


I found out last week that I won’t be returning as a first grade teacher but will be the 2nd grade interventionist.  I actually think I might be happier in that role.  I will actually be using the Master’s Degree in Literacy I worked hard for!  And I don’t think my day will be quite as hectic since I won’t be dealing with 30 kids at a time.  That doesn’t mean I am not expecting any challenges.  But I am actually more optimistic about this year now than what I was leaving last year. And I’ll be working with some of my babies from last year :-)

So cheers to a new school year!
