Most are calling me crazy at this point.  We have 3 weeks until school starts back and I can't wait!  I am so excited!  Not only will this be a new class, but a new room, new grade level, new GLEAM mates, new curriculum, new, new and more new!  But I am certainly up for it. 
I have been planning in my head since the day I found out I was switching grade levels.  Now that opening day is fast approaching I can't believe it is actually happening.  My biggest problem is have too many ideas running in my head all at once.  Too many magazines and resources.  I need to start just taking this one step at a time. 
Not only am I trying to plan for the beginning of a new school year.  I am getting things organized for our annual staff retreat.  I LOVE being in charge, and those of you that know me, know this about me.  I thrive off of keeping myself busy and being able to get things done.  I always say that I would rather do something myself, so that I know it's being done how I envisioned then let others do it.  My mom says that I need to learn to delegate, I'm promising myself to work on that this year!  It will be hard though.  I like the appreciation. 
I'm heading back to my classroom tomorrow, so I'll be back to let you know how that goes!  Until then...
 
This is a great idea. Are you thinking that you will post something about the day when school starts? What a great way to communicate with families. You go girl!!
