This week I found out that I get to have my request of teaching a regular education 4th grade class next year. One of the things I love most about being a teacher is the buzz and excitement for a new schoolyear. The clean slate where you always get to restart and repair previous errors. It's a beautiful thing. I really do enjoy the anticipation of what could be. However sometimes the weeks prior to the school year are full of sleepless nights where my brain never shuts off. For some odd reason, my brain has decided that it would like to do that know with all the possibilities for next year when I haven't even finished this one. I guess I could consider it a blessing. It has me charged up and ready to do some summer nerdy teacher reading and summer lesson planning. Weird. I've never had the desire to do much of that stuff before. Might this be God's way of confirming that I'm making the right decision to step away from Special Ed for a while and take a refreshing breather and a new challenge. I will feel sad leaving my teammates and roommates behind in the world of Special Ed Resource, but here's to the adventure...hopefully there will be some sleep involved in the next 3 monnths.
