Moving on

Well, after an interesting year at my private Christian School teaching four grades of science, language arts, health, current events, and Christian learning I've accepted a job teaching high school science. I've dealt with the youngsters for so long that I am a bit apprehensive about teaching bigger kids, but I like the subject, and I think I can do it, once I crack the code of dealing with high-schoolers.

And my daughter will go with me, on the small kid side of the school, so I will still have her around to cheer me up on bad days. Plus I'll have company.

Nice new, big school. Modern facility, and good stuff for my daughter to do as far as gifted kids go (I think if she's not gifted, she's extremely bright).

So, anyhow, got my contract, started loading all my stuff into the new classroom, and I should be good to go when school starts in August. It will be interesting -- the first time I have taught exclusively science since I changed careers. I guess we'll see how it goes.

First up: I will teach them that to be genetically considered a midget, a human male must be 4'10" or shorter. Oh, and that hobbits don't exist, regardless of those who fantasize about such things.
