Green is Good

^ I got to wear a lot because of St. Patrick's Day. :)

I almost forgot to write this!

So Wednesday was the last day of school before conferences, and I was pretty much expecting NOT to work, since teachers have conferences right after school that day until 8. But shockingly, I actually did get called in the morning for a full day job!

Turns out, the teacher (one who I subbed for last week) had lost her voice. She felt fine, but couldn't really talk. So she was there the whole day sort of telling me what she'd like me to do as we went along. (She also printed out a schedule for me, which was nice.) Also, throughout the day she started to get her voice back, so periodically she'd jump in and give some direction.

It was pretty simple for me. I lead a reading group, the supervised them taking their reading tests. I taught a math lesson, then supervised them taking their math tests. After lunch, I gave directions on how to do an art project. That's about it. The rest of the day was filled with lunch, recess, and media!

So, for the two days of the April pay period that got squeezed in before Spring Break - I worked both of them! Good start! Now I feel I earned my vacation. :)

Great job. Sometimes subbing can be a nightmare, and other times it can be heavenly.

I'm glad you got that extra unexpected day in before the break. It was especially nice that you had an excuse to really put on the green. :)
Love you!!! MOM
