Music Day

Today, I taught music for half a day. Oh joy!

I learned that I cannot tap a steady beat and I already knew that I'm basically tone deaf. Therefore, I relied on the students a lot. They probably thought it was pretty cool that their teacher told them it was up to them to have the day run smoothly. And you know what? For the most part, they really stepped up. I had spent time in two of the three classes before so I knew names for those groups. The other group gave me a bit of a hard time, but nothing unmanageable.

However, that meant the third day in a row that I didn't get to work with two of my kids. I hope that tomorrow is better and that there aren't a million teachers out (Mon - 9/22 or so, Tues - 5ish/22).
