Tuesday: WHAT A DAY SO FAR!?

Well, what a day this has been thus far!?! I got to ACPC to sub today and I am now in a preschool classroom. Well anyone who knows me, knows that me in a pre-k class is probably not the best idea. Before Emma and Zoie were born I was not a kid person at all! Emma and Zoie, on the other hand, are way different than a class of 18 3 and 4 year olds. Boy, have I had my hands full today! I am exhausted. This is really the first break I have had all day long. We have to go to specials with them and set with them while they eat...I had to wait for lunch when they took a nap! This is crazy. Pre-k teachers should definitely get paid way more than they do. This particular class is a free-preschool classroom and it breaks my heart to see a few of these kids who are so far behind on their development. I am so thankful for my girls and I am so glad that they are up to par with their development thus far in their life. They are really smart actually. They can put puzzle pieces in a puzzle book that they have and they can also identify many things in another book that is titled 100 First Words. My mom swears that they are developing pre-reading skills already because they can tell when a book is upside down and they turn the pages and act like they are actually reading the book. Anyways, Im ready to get out of here for the day. I have definitely earned my pay today and yesterday here at ACPC. I am scheduled here again tomorrow and Im sure its in a pre-school class because the instructional aides are going to be out tomorrow and they need subs also. I cant imagine having to teach a pre-school class all alone! That would be total chaos. Well, Ive got an appointment afterschool then Im home to relax for the rest of the day! Until next time...
