Yesterday when I arrived at school I was told that I was needed in first grade. Generally speaking, I am supposed to be used in high school and middle school. However, there was no need for me there, but there was a need in first grade. I was happy to do it, although elementary school gets out an hour later than I am supposed to work. Normally that wouldn't be a problem, but I had an appointment for my church job that wouldn't allow me to stay until the end of my elementary day. They decided they could easily find someone to cover for me for an hour, so I was sent to first grade.
Overall, it was really a lovely day. There are only sixteen kids in the class. When I did the long-term assignment eight years ago, there were twenty-four little ones in that group, so this nearly felt like being on vacation compared to that! Overall the kids were good, and there was even a student teacher to provide a little bit of help. I am NOT in any hurry to be spending my days at the elementary level, but I did enjoy it while I was there!
