countdown to zero hour...
well, tomorrow at 7:35 the kiddies descend. (that's the worst thing about this fall's student teaching placement. I hafta be there at 7:30ish every friggin morning. and there's no parking at the school and today I got a ticket. :-P scuse the whining...)
anyway, well, it looks like this semester is gonna be relatively mellow. definitely a lot less crying. the teacher maintains firm control of her class and lets me teach a unit or two once in a while. fine by me. i'm just looking forward to learning from her. she seems pretty cool.
some of the students came in today and they are so tiny!!!! (they're just 11 after all, compared to my big hulking students last year)(they were born the year I graduated from college--scary stuff man!)
the impression of tininess is increased by the fact that their eyes are just gigantically bugging out of their little heads--apparently movin' on up to middle school is fucking terrifying. poor things.
well, i'll keep y'all posted. here's a shout-out to xe in Tucson and to the soc TAs who will be rolling into action soon. let's hear it for teachers.... yee-haw.
