A New School Year

A new school year begins for me in a little over a month. This school year is going to bring a whole new set of challenges for me. First, this will be the first school year as a mom. Not only do I need to balance being a teacher, coach and wife, now I get the added joy of being a mom with a full-time job. I will truly miss Avery each day, but she has a WONDERFUL babysitter that will love her and teach her new and exciting things! I am also taking on a new teaching assignment. I will be teaching low readers ( 2nd, 3rd, or 4th grade level) on a block schedule (100 min). I am very excited about this new challenge and love learning new ways to teach kids how to read. Which brings me to another challenge I will be facing this year....I am hoping to start my Masters this fall! I know! I am crazy! I recently found out that SWOSU has a web-based Reading Specialist Masters program and I just couldn't pass up the oppurtunity. I adore my Professors at SWOSU and excited that I can be a student in their classroom again. Even if it is in the virtual world! So, between Kevin's 2nd year of residency, teaching, coaching, Avery and my Masters program I am going to have one busy school year! How many days until next summer? :)
