Day one hungry and ready to go home :-)

Well I did it, and I did "have it" all under control.  There are so many more things that I would love to share on these posts but I will stick to the generic as it is the safe route.  I have 20 students and today although there were plenty of seats available, the room felt a tad crowded.  One of my tasks tonight will be to set up a seating chart (not for remember names-I got that down in the first hour) but for behavior control.  The other task will be to rearrange what I have set up so far to find more space if it exists.
I took it upon myself to have a nice chat with my principal to let him in on how my day went and how I would like him to help/monitor my efforts.  This is an adventure but also a very important career move for me.  The meeting went well and I am looking forward to working under his management for the rest of the school year.
Now on to supper, my lunch was a quick chocolate chip granola bar and a spoonful of peanut butter.  I wasn't too sure about eating to school lunch just yet.  We will have to see as I know it is a good rapport builder with the kids.  Above all today was a great day and I am glad I made the decision to put myself out there to better my interests and career path.  Can't wait for day two!
Until next time
