So today was the day. I'm amazed I slept! I have been so nervous anticipating my first day at Laton Elementary. And I have been dreading the thought of waking up at 6am. I am NOT a morning person. Just ask Caleb.
Anyways, so I got to school in pretty good time, without too much traffic, and I went to the office. The principal wanted me to wait a few minutes for my student to arrive...and about 15 minutes later the office got a call from my kid's mother saying they were "sick".
DAHH!
SO my first day went alright. I accustomed myself to the room, looked at some of her assignments, helped tutor a little gorl with some math, and helped with lunch duty. The kids were great. I kept having little girls run up to me and ask me my name. One of them ran up to me and gave me the "cheese touch". Luckily I just watched "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" two days ago so I knew what they were talking about. Another girl told me to give it to her. I helped walk them to the playground. I was the caboose of the line and got to talk to a few of the students. One girl asked me if I got paid to walk at the back of the line. They were fun.
So tomorrow I meet Rosa.
Off to study up on Autism education.
