Today was my first official Monday as a teacher. I feel like saying it was Monday should be description enough. I mean, seriously, who really does Mondays. I sure wish I didn't have to. Apparently, some of my students don't either. We had some serious meltdowns, today. Wowza! "Weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth" is a actually a most accurate description of our Monday.
During some of our most intense moments of meltdown, our new speech pathologist came for a visit. Poor woman. We really did not make a very welcoming group. I also had a visit from the local VoTech because some of her LPN students complete practicums in our room. Nothing like finding out that you're getting "observed" in your second week of school! I did manage to talk her into coming in after our students were dismissed. YAY!
Overall, I am just glad to have survived my first Monday. We did actually get to work with some of the kids one-on-one and it was pretty productive. We are still short one aide for another week, so we are stretched a little bit thin.
Looking forward to another great week.
Thanks for reading!
