So, it turns out that teaching is incredibly time consuming. I have like a million things to say, but no time to say them. Here are some quick points...
* Cavemen the sitcom isn't as bad as it sounds.
* The weather in NYC has been beautiful.
* I baked this past weekend to keep my apartment warm and almost poisoned myself with carbon monoxide.
* I had 16 students at the end of September. I had 18 students at the end of the Columbus day week, and now I have 19 students. Any other 6 year olds feel like randomly joining my class? No seriously, I want more students because once I hit 20 students my class will be the same size as every other first grade class. That means that the office will stop automatically sending me all the new kids off the street.
* My next door neighbor Kylie gave me clothes and a pair of shoes and I'm indebted to her for helping to upgrade my wardrobe from awful to passable.
* I spend all my money on my class and on food, and I'm worried I won't be able to pay my rent (again).
* Sometimes, I wish more than anything that I could speak Spanish.
* That song about sweaters from the Old Navy commercial is stuck in my head.
I have some writing pieces from my students that I want to share so stay tuned for that.
