But today went fairly smoothly. The kids are cool, some will be handfuls I can tell. And I don't think I was strict enough today. At lunch they told me I was "sooooooo nice", so that must mean I'm doing something wrong. They'll probably run all over me tomorrow.
I ended up going with a Frog theme for the room, so I thought I'd give you a few pictures.
The infamous green wall: (the other teachers at my school think I'm crazy for keeping it that color, but I like it)
The door view:
And the reading area complete with the bathtub:
{** I just discovered these pictures are WAY too big to fit, but it's too late to fix the problem tonight. Maybe tomorrow I'll figure it out**)
Also, funny story. At Meet the Teacher night someone seriously said to me: "OH My GOSH, you are the little girl from down the street!!"
I was totally embarrassed and slightly amused.
[oh, and for you professional bloggers, I know my titles are obscenely long, but a good song lyric is always better than something witty/corny I might make up myself]

Your room looks so good! You did it!! Although we definitely need some more Eagle (Soar Onward) paraphernalia up in there. Eagles, Go, Go, Go, Go!
Amber it looks so good! I'm so happy for you!!
Ohhh, why haven't I checked your blog this week?? I've just spent my time thinking about you but doing nothing productive about my ponderings!
Your green wall is SO amazing! I think the other teachers are the crazy ones. Hope you didn't have to be to harsh on the kids the second day, unless you needed to be, that is. Give us a call when you're winding down today, we want to hear everything!
the room looks great, amber.
