Just breathe...

This is what I keep telling myself when I think about going back to work. I don't know if some of you have heard, but apparently I am a phoenix...I have to keep reinventing myself! I started out teaching special education, then moved to language arts, and this year I am moving into a mathematics position. Teachers have to be ever so flexible, I tell you. Anyway, I have to work three days next week (workshops and registration). I also have to get working on lesson plans for the first month of school and getting my NEW classroom organized...yes, I had to change rooms, too. Please say a prayer for me and let me know if you have any suggestions. I am teaching 6th and 7th grade, so let me know if you think of any cute older kid math ideas!
