My Classroom and My Dogs

I've promised pictures of our new house and my classroom, but instead you're getting pictures of my classroom and my dogs in Halloween costumes. Even better than house pictures if you ask me. :)









And here are photos of my classroom.



I was so excited to see my name officially inscribed on a piece of blue plastic outside my door! It is a highlight of being a teacher! I feel like I'm in charge and important with my name outside my door. Cheesy, yes, but that's me!









It's not very big and it smells bad because of the paper mill down the road but it's colorful and it serves its purpose. I'm just excited that it's all mine.

I had a parent conference the other day (it's weird to be telling people who are 10 years older than me problems with their children!) and the parent's phone rang and she answered it and said, "Hey can I call you back? I with my daughter's teacher." And I wanted to jump up and kiss her because I was like, "Yep! That's me! I'm a teacher! I'm a real teacher!" I was so tickled. I tried to keep the big doofy grin off my face after that. It was hard. :)
