I feel like my planning is actually starting to take off! I've never planned so many activities for a lesson and my class times are shorter than when I student taught so it will be interesting to see if I can get it all in, especially the first full week. Pacing is an interesting thing. One class will just race through and another class will only get half as far. That's ok though! I just have to remember that no one can be perfect their first year and it is just a work in progress!
I am a little bit nervous for that first day. I may have classes where over half of my kids don't know any English. The kindergarten teacher told me this is normal, but that by Christmas, they will be fluent!
Does anyone have any advice for going over procedures the first day if a large percentage of my kids can't understand what I am saying?
Countdown to my move: 12 days
Countdown to the first day of school: 31 days
