Sixth Grade

Wow! What a quick 7 weeks! I had a great experience in 6th grade. I went in terrified of those kids. I thought they were going to be huge, mean, and have bad attitudes. They were all great! There were the select few that I had to get on to, but overall it was a great group! I didn't realize how much I would get attached to them since there were 130 kids to teach daily. My last day was Oct. 6 and all my kids made me cards. They would present them to me before we started that day's lesson, and I would fight back tears the whole time. I will keep and treasure those cards forever. I was in a History class, so my time was spent researching things I forgot and looking up things I'm pretty sure I never learned. I liked 6th grade because of how independent they are. I got very used to just saying, do this...and they did it! Now I'm going into Kindergarten. It should be an interesting change since Kindergarten is so different. I'm looking forward to being back in an elementary school though. I feel like that's where I'm supposed to be. I've already met my new mentor teacher, and she is so sweet! I hope to have another great experience! Hopefully I find a job somewhere in the middle of the year. God will put me exactly where I need to be, so I will just put it in His hands.
