170 Days and Counting!

I have just been hired as a 4th grade inner city teacher. This is my adventure. It is what I have been waiting for. My feeling right now is that I have so little time to give my students everything I feel they need to be successful in life. I will meet my class in one week! It is both scary and exciting. I plan to record my thoughts and feelings in my first year of teaching here on this blog. I hope to keep my wonderful network of other teachers, friends, and family and take all of their advice and wisdom to heart. I will need all the support I can get. Let's go!
