I am going to be greeted tomorrow by 22 smiling faces (well, maybe 21 smiling faces. I've got one girl coming to me who never smiles. I hope to change that.) and an eagerness to learn. The desks are set, the pencils are out, and I am ready. This year is a special year for me as it's my tenth year teaching. Whoa! My very first class of first graders (1999-2000 school year) are entering their sophomore year in high school this year. It's still hard for me to believe!
So, here's to a good year, here's to a productive year, and here's to a memorable year. I am...... READY! :)

Thanks! It's going to be a good day! :)
good luck with all those new kids. and have fun!
I can't believe it's been 10 years already! Oh, how the time flies!
I hope your day is going well! Tell me all about it when you get a chance.
It was a decent day! All 22 of my students showed up. Many of them groaned and were disappointed when I told them it was the end of the day. That's a really good sign! I am very tired as it was a busy/hectic day and really, really hot in my classroom. Tomorrow I'm wearing capris! Overall though, it was a good day. I look at the first day as the ground-breaking day, one of which is now over -- the real work begins tomorrow! :)
Glad that you had a great day and that everyone was so eager to learn! They don't have AC in the school? I don't know about the school The Girl is at now, but they did at her last school.
I'm up to 23 students now..... When will it end? We do have A/C but the powers that be decided to leave it off to save money for winter heating. If only we could harness the heat in my classroom now and save it for later.......
