First Day of School
My first day with students was rough. I didn’t know why the first class went so poorly until at the end of class, 9 of the 19 brought up behavior contracts to be signed, meaning they are known to be problem students. Thankfully, I don't have that class anymore. It’s been getting progressively better ever since. Boy, I thought I overplanned, but I still came up short on activities. I was exhausted yesterday after work.. So TIRING! I ended up teaching 2 sections of 10th grade programming, which is a required course, so there are some difficult ones. I also have the 2 sections of multimedia that I expected.
We took a picture of us on the first day, just like my mom used to make me do all the way through college :)
