Firs t day of School Round up

I for got how exhausting teaching is. All I did to day was pace the room from the smart board to the white board. In heels. My first hour is my plan period. This is great because I'm super ready for the day. This is not so great because I have no break from the kiddos. All the freshman classes seem like they will be a lot better than last year. My average class size was 24 students as opposed to 29/30 at "place that must not be named." I have been setting limits and calling out students who are misbehaving. The smart board is an excellent tool, and I'm excited to use it. Basically you can set up lessons like you would a web page, and be able to type things on the board, surf the next, etc, all on a 3'X 4 foot screen. The only disadvantage is that it is on the way far side of the classroom, so the people across the room can't see it very well. Plus the room doesn't have air conditioning
