School has begun. This year Nick is teaching 8th grade English and helping out with 7th grade English as well as a few Health and Science classes. I’ll be teaching Freshmen and Seniors during first semester, then Sophomores and Juniors during second semester. It’s block scheduling, so if you’re doing the math, that’s all four years of high school English.
Our school projects are in full swing now. Nick is planting a community garden and I’m starting a new library. It was a lot of slow-moving, taxing preparatory work during the summer so it’s fun to see major progress being made on both projects, as the kids get to jump in and help. Plus, it’s twice as much fun to work on the projects when you get to see their animated reactions.
It’s nice to have the kids back in the classroom and it’s nice to have a routine again.
We’ll see how long this “honeymoon” lasts. Ha!
