Working Gal... That's Me!

I have had such a busy week!!

On Monday morning I was called to sub in a grade 2 classroom. Lately, I have been sticking to grades 2-4. These are the students I enjoy teaching the best. Normally, I do not like to take AM calls. The raise my stress level and I feel anxious all day! I really need the work, so I took the job!

I arrived to the classroom to discover the teacher's planbook had two huge gaps. This has happened to me a few times before ans I usually just go with the flow. The kids were pretty nice and their was another classroom assistant in the room which is always a HUGE help! Around 2:00, the secretary called and asked if I could come back tomorrow. I then spoke to the teacher and I discovered she had thrown her back out.

I have been in the classroom the whole week. I have discovered that I could teach grade 2 if I had a classroom of that age level. It is true that I prefer grades 4-6, but it is nice to know that my skills do extend a little lower. I have enjoyed being in the same school all week and seeing the same kids!

I REALLY DO MISS TEACHING FULL TIME !!

I must say I am so very tired tonight. I have had other errands and family stuff going on this week. I still am trying to get myself to the gym at least three times a week and I also am really trying to count my calories every day. I have WORKED for 7 days straight between both jobs. I will be happy when it is Sunday and I have a day of for some FUN!
