Dang Yearbooks

Today I got a call to sub at 5:30 in the morning! I was happy about the job, not so happy about the time of the call!

The day was fine. I had two classes because the teacher I was subbing for team-teaches with another teacher, so they switch classes halfway through the day. Both classes were really small, so that's nice. One had 14 kids and the other had 15. And I'd been to these classes before, so it was nice to kind of know my way around.

The morning went really smoothly, but the afternoon was a bit annoying. First, I was told some kids needed to finish a project, but it turned out that nearly ALL of them needed to finish it. And it was a project they needed a computer for and there weren't enough computers for all of them to do it. So I was trying to sort that out when we had a fire drill! (Thankfully, I was warned that this was coming.) Also, in the late afternoon the yearbooks got delivered! So the kids were stoked about this (even though only 4 kids ordered them). When I went to pass them out, I discovered we didn't have enough! So it took a while to sort that out. Then, they had some yearbook signing party in the cafeteria for kids who ordered them, so that was crazy. And then I couldn't really do anything with the remaining kids because a third of them would miss it. So it was just kind of a mess. And to top it off - it was also popcorn day! So I had popcorn to pass out as well.

I guess today's busy day with lots of things going on makes up for yesterday with it's slow pace. It all evens out. You've sure been busy lately. It's hard to keep up with commenting on the blogs!
Love you!!! MOM
