School Flow
Things are getting into the normal swing of things at school. I'm really scared that I will jinx it, but I'm really teaching well this year. My classroom control is so much better, kids are terrified of me (that's a good thing), and my lessons are more aware of my kids needs.
Except for the bumbling assistant principal, I am so glad I am back this year. If I had moved on to a high school, I wouldn't have had an opportunity to really see my hard work achieving anything. This year is going to be good. I know what my kids need, I know what I need, and I'll actually have time to do those things.
My favorite student mistake so far-
A girl wrote a sentence with the word 'hummnungus.' Just as gaint means giant, I think the first word is humungous, but you can never tell with kids.

You're off to a great start! It's got to be very rewarding to see your hard work rewarded in your kids' growth. It's the third week of school and I'm already exhausted.
The word of the year is "GINORMOUS". A mixture of "giant" and "enormous" that seems to be permeating my household of late. I thought after junior high they stop making up their own words. I was wrong.

"Hummunungus" sounds like something boy hummingbirds would do to girl hummingbirds. But I didn't say that out loud.

Hummilingus?
