My classroom before the start of the first day!

I will write about how the first day went, but for now here are a few photos of my classroom :D

Sorry its a bit blurry, but here is my sign on my door

I only have two students right now! But each desk is all set up with their bell ringer

The daily schedule, which we are not totally following yet because we dont have books/textbooks/materials/uniforms/etc yet 
I will write more soon, but for now just be assured that Mike and I made it sucessfully through the first day of school! Now for the second....

The first day

Well, it is finally upon us. Tomorrow is the first day of school.

I am super nervous, and still have a lot of preparing to do tonight but I am still very excited! I have, unfortunately, dropped from having three students to having only two. Its going to be very interesting! I met both Joon and Kim on Saturday, they are both very excited and surprisingly proficient in English (they are both Korean).

My room looks pretty nice if I do say so myself, it is MUCH more decorated than any other elementary room, I am a little surprised. I will make sure to take some photos tomorrow before the day starts at 8:30

I think the first few weeks are going to be a total shit show honestly, so that is why I am not completely freaked right now. Some rooms dont have furniture yet. There is no playground. We dont have books. No bookshelves. No textbooks. No uniforms yet. Still missing a lot of materials. so I don't feel that worried, everyone is in the same boat as me!

I will let you know how it goes tomorrow, WISH US LUCK!
