January
We came back from our Christmas trip, rejuvenated and reenergized. Julie and I prepared
for meeting our 40 smiling students, while Sister Esther had another plan for
us. She sat us down and said they added another new student, so we have 41, and
therefore they decided to split the class. We were mixed feeling about this,
because while we wouldn’t be in the same classroom with the same students all the
time, we would be able to actually control a class of 20 or so children. We
decided to continue to subject teach instead of one of us teaches all of A and
one teaches all the subjects in B. I teach math, science, religion, and music
to both classes while Julie teaches English, social studies, computer and art
to both classes. It is a lot of running back and forth between the adjacent
classrooms but we both prefer seeing all of our kids instead of only half of
them. Also, we are continually getting new students in both classes. We are up
to 45 now, and we are having so much fun. It’s great that all the kids get the
individual attention they need in order to excel in the classroom.
