2010-2011 School Year

Well, the first week of the 2010-2011 school year is almost over. The week has flown by. My schedule has changed yet again. At the rate I'm going I don't think I'll have two school years that look the same. Ever. But I really do like what I do. This year is different in that I have the opportunity to teach more at the elementary level. Due to financial difficulties the Christian school I am teaching at had to combine the 2nd and 3rd grade classes. The administration had to let go of the 3rd grade teacher and the placed me as the combined class' aid. I am working with Jen Bauer, who is an amazing teacher. This week has been a lot of fun. Jen and I are a lot alike and we love to laugh when we are working together.

The bigger challenge I have for the year is the work I am doing in the jr. high. Oh boy. I am continuing teaching jr high art the same as last year. It is nice to have the class again because I can learn from my mistakes. :o) I am also teaching jr. high computers and spanish. Si, hablo espanol. Un poquito. Praise the Lord! Both of those classes are computer programs, so that I just have to make sure the students are actually working. We'll see how that goes. :o)

I'm really excited to see what God has planned for this school year. I know that He is going to stretch me this year and teach me a lot.
