On to the BIG news....I won't be teaching second grade next year...I won't be teaching any grade next year. I am the new math instructional facilitator for my district K-6!I interviewed for the position just to get the experience of interviewing at a district level because I ultimately wanted to do something with curriculum which is why I got my masters degree in curriculum leadership. I never thought they would offer me the job! It was totally unexpected. I am super excited to be helping create common assessments, a scope and sequence, and any other curriculum documents our teachers need. I will though miss all my friends at my school and all the kids. I think I will be a little depressed in August when everyone is buying stuff for their classrooms and I won't be. At least I will get to decorate my office with my teammate who is my BFF!! We are so excited to be working together again!
So I want to share with you the craziness that is happen within the next two months:
Spring Break 18-24: Going to Wisconsin with my BFF 20-25
April 8-13: Going to Cancun for FREE: My hubbies work is paying for us to go!
April 14-16: Going to Chicago for training with my new job
April 20:Throwing a Baby Shower for by BFF
April 22: We have to be moved our of our house because we accepted an offer yesterday
CRAZY!!! This is an exciting time....oh and my hubby finishes his school next week! I am super proud of him because he has done his whole degree online and it has been a long process!
On to school pictures:
