And to my last confession... the final blow came in early last week. I've been reassigned to first grade. I'm much better with this decision now, but it has taken a LOT of prayer and crying to get there. I love kinder and was looking forward to another year working with some of the best teachers I know. I was looking forward to a new group of littles to help grow. I was looking forward to not having some of the most difficult students... and then. I don't know if any of you have ever face moving grades or if you teach First. It has not been easy for me to get to a place that I am ok... and I can honestly say that I am ok.
I do need your help though.... I need to know what First grade blogs you follow or love. What First grade sellers on TPT meet the expectations of sellers like Deedee Wills, Kim Adsit, and Deanna Jump. I also need morning work... I use The Printable Princess for this and I need something that would meet the needs of my firsties..... I need HELP! And I know that the blogging world will come to my rescue.
Wow! The EXACT same thing happened to me a couple of years ago! A bad year and then a move to 1st. I was so upset. I do not enjoy 1st grade at all. I was lucky this year to get moved to TK. There are a lot of great 1st grade bloggers out there that make teaching 1st look great.I used Kelly Dolling - Teacher Idea Factory's morning work. I also like Katie King - Queen of First Grade's monthly Busy Teacher packets. Good luck to you next year.
