Class Lists Posted

(Cross-post ahead… enjoy the school update!)

Class lists were posted today. All the teachers got our class lists yesterday.

I will have 26 students this year, at least to start. I can handle it. They will be a good mix of students with very abilities and needs. :)

It’s go time. I’m nervous, excited, wound-up, and worried all at the same time. And we still have a week until the kids walk in the door.

It’s becoming real, as yesterday I created the following nomenclature identification devices: nametags for lunch count, nametags for supply pouch, nametags for the room helper chart, table nametags to hang over the six tables, and table nametags to put on the table. Plus name stickers for the students’ mailboxes. I also labeled their math books, with, you guessed it; their names.

Whew!

Today I learned how to make simple Flash animations, and worked with Fireworks, both through the Dreamweaver Studio software. Neither program really has a chance of making it into my classroom, but I enjoyed learning about it for my own personal knowledge. I’ll be able to use Fireworks for my class webpage, and well, now I can say I’ve designed some Flash stuff.

7 days. Tomorrow (Thursday) I’m in my classroom in the morning, and in the afternoon I get to learn how to design CSS, and maybe write a little PHP. Good times.

    Ha. Flash your students…you so funny.

    Every time I hear anything about “dreamweaver” I get that song in my head and flash back to Wayne’s World with all the starry effects around whats-her-face the bass player. “I buh-leeeeve you can get me through the na-hiiiiiiiiiight”…
