First Day of School
Today was the first day of school.
Teaching is hard.
Tell your kids to hug their teachers today.

Well, we survived the first week of school! I have 39 second
graders and I’m all by myself until Sister Comfort can join us in a few weeks.
She’s off in Takoradi taking exams. It is extremely overwhelming and chaotic
most of the time, but each day was a little easier than the last. We were
rewarded with a 3-day weekend already; woohoo! We are remembering Ghana’s first
president’s birthday and it’s a national holiday. I spent the weekend writing
lesson plans, creating a new seating arrangement and seating chart for my
students, grading papers, and hanging out with our American friend Sierra who came
to visit. I am well rested and prepared to start our next week of school!
Prayers for patience will be greatly appreciated (:
