@Chance: Thanks for the metaphor catch =-) though I’m hardly a Confucius! A month later when I look back on it all, I’m sure I’ll feel good about having invested in quality lesson planning. Right now though, if the kids don’t respond to it, then it feels like quality-schmality. LOL. Kids are definitely unpredictable. I think that’s the only thing you can predict!
@Laura: Yes, the support really helps especially with the younger kids. The lesson really can’t move very far if the kids don’t understand the directions or what they have to do. The final day, I definitely needed CT help. so I had a CT of mine write a letter to show the KTs, just in case some of them wanted to duck out of class!

I’m glad you finally got the support you needed, even if it was a little late 🙂

It sounds like you invested a lot of energy into some quality lesson planning and should feel good about that.

As I was reading this post I couldn’t help but notice your clever use of metaphors. I shall now refer to you as Christine Confucius. You are wise:)
