Unpacking My Classroom

I took a ride up to Nett Lake today so I could see my classroom and move my totes in. It’s amazing to be unpacking all of my school stuff again. When I was cleaning up at Forestview, I was so uncertain as to what I’d be doing this school year. I knew we’d be okay, whatever route life ended up taking, but it really was tough to walk out of the middle school for the last  time in June. So today, as I worked to move desks, look through materials, and start making this classroom my own, I thought about how lucky I’ve been in the six years since college – so much of which was never a part of “my plan”. It makes me excited to see what this job holds for me!

These are pictures of the work I did in my classroom today. The views in each are opposite the other.

After a good day in Nett, I came home to plans for a cook out at the Black Bay campsite. Ape and Jesse brought the food, and Dad, Bill and I joined them for a quick jaunt up the bay. It was a beautiful night!

I hear that Lo has plans for coming up this weekend. I imagine that means we’ll play a little Mario Kart – yahoo!

    What a nice looking room! I’ve been busy organizing mine as well. I just don’t have enough space, but with 33 students in my small room, I guess that’s to be expected!

    Enjoy your last weeks of summer!

  5. Your classroom looks nice and big. I hope you have a wonderful year, I look forward to hearing about your newest adventure. As for Brevig we start on Tuesday and things are going well.

    When looking at your blog, I am so envious of your nice summer weather. It never really got nice and summery while we were there. Bummer! Enjoy it twice as much for us, O.K.? Thanks.
