From Miss Poulsbo to Miss Duchemin



Rom 408 here I come!


Welcome to Miss Duchemin's first grade class! That's right, I got a teaching job at Christ the King Academy and I start August 27th. I am collecting things for my classroom now and as soon as I am done working at the coffee stand on August 15th I will set to work on my room.
If you have any children's books, shelves, school supplies or educational games/posters, or really anything along those lines let me know! I am certainly a great charity case and my first graders will appreciate it!


Pillows, bean bags, dressups... I had to change my entire mindset from 4th-6th grade thinking to 1st grade thinking so I am in need of all kinds of things.


I can't believe I am teacher! It is quite the responsiblity. I feel a bit like a deer in the headlights. I give a parent orientation on August 30th and students are in school on September 4th. What do I say? What will my morning routines be? How do I start?


What an adventure. I would love to hear your favorite school memories or things your favorite teachers did. Do help!


Blessings,


Alex - or should I say "Miss Duchemin"
