I am loving my job.....it is a massive change to be working in the lower grades full time..I find it hard not to do things for them..they are so tiny and cute!!!!
Swimming was a treat...how many can rip their school clothes off to and get into togs but struggle with putting that uniform back on? How many pairs of undies do the cleaners find after the lower school swimming lessons?
The joy at doing simple things like colouring with textas is amazing....they look on their faces when we play a new classroom game or they get how many faces on a cube or sphere priceless and something that makes me smile every day.
MrDD is starting to understand Mrs B has expectations and he has taken himself to the loo a few times (awesome)...
The teacher is amazing she is open to ideas and is always happy even when repeating herself many, many times...so unlike the past!!!!
It is a new warm and fuzzy feeling to walk into a room with smiles no matter what time of the day and be thanked for working along side each other not for her....
yes I still struggle with 'have I made the right choice?' career wise the other place has their signs up now and I know it would be lots more money........
It feels right, a good fit .....
I think about you every day when I drive past the AEIOU sign. It sounds like you made the right decision, though. Lovely to read your latest (school) posts. The teacher sounds tops.
ReplyDeleteIt IS lovely. The rewards are huge in the lower school. Totally different. They just moved a Year 1 into my middle school block. It's so great. The block feels alive again!
