School has started again. I (Brian) sitting here watching You've Got Mail with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. "Makes me want to buy school supplies, I would buy you a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils." Good movie.
Anyway...we finally got the time to take a breather and talk about this new year that has started. Luckily for us we both got reappointed and got to keep our jobs this school year. Staci is teaching 2nd grade instead of Kindergarten and I am mainly teaching juniors and seniors. I have my College Readiness class with seniors and a Finance class. My Finance class is pretty cool actually. My current project with them is budgeting life working 40 hours a week with a minimal wage job (ranging from $7-$15). Oh it was eye-opening for them.
Since it is a new year we needed new themes. You probably are not going to be able to see them so we took pictures to show you. First, more importantly is Staci and her Superhero Second Grade Class

First day of School Pictures
From the teacher desk
Organization Expert
The board
Reading area where skyscrapers and superheroes train the brain
Staci's Word Wall and small group table
The desk have their names written on them with Sharpie Paint Pen
Look at the "incredible" sign. Staci's work is incredible. She made it herself.
My first day of school shot.
My theme this year is Tetris. Like math, it's the "greatest game of all"
My Tetris board
My room was poorly painted green. so I wallpapered the front of my room different colors.
The posters are character words that I promised to follow to my students. Words like dependability, respect, trustworthiness, etc.
We are ready for the school year!
We will stay having fun though even if school has started. Look out for our next adventures. They are going to be fun-filled.
